Project on peace building in South Caucasus

Journalists and civic activists who are residents of one of the South Caucasian countries can participate in this project.
The Norwegian Helsinki Committee, with the support of the European Commission and the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, has announced its regional project, “Coalition for Trust."
The project invites participants from countries including Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia, as well as the conflict regions: Abkhazia, South Ossetia and Karabakh. The aim of the project is to build a capacity and network of target group members to meaningfully participate in processes of peace building and reconciliation.
During the project, the selected participants are required to attend six seminars throughout two years. The seminars will take place in a parallel manner in Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia. The project also includes meetings, study trips, public discussions and debates on peace/trust building and reconciliation issues.
The first cycle of seminars for the three target groups will be held June 2013 in Tbilisi. The duration of the seminar for each target group is three days. The working languages are Russian and/or one of the local languages.
Participation in the seminars does not carry a fee and all relevant expenses (local travel and accommodation if needed) are covered by the project.
