“GYUMRI YOUTH HOUSE” OPEN YOUTH CENTRE

 

“Gyumri Youth House” open youth centre is the first youth center in Armenia working with the methodology and principles of open youth work, which was founded by Gyumri “Youth Initiative Center” NGO in May 2018 in cooperation with the European Union and Gyumri Municipality. The organization believes that professional work with young people and free services in one of the remote districts of Gyumri has the full potential to fill the gap that currently exists in a safe and youth-centered environment and to provide opportunities for personal development and informal learning.
