It remains to understand the situation in Armenia: what support measures are required and what are already being taken. To do this, we studied news channels and talked with Elena Kozhemyakina, ambassador of the VIVA Foundation. Doctors and volunteers – Armenia.” From September 24 to October 1, volunteers worked in the transit points of Goris and Vayke and know better than anyone about the needs of internally displaced persons. The Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs (shortly called sotsap), the Red Cross and the VIVA Foundation worked with refugees in the temporary camps. How it happened: 1. The ministry conducted a survey of incoming residents. They were registered on the website rapidneeds.socservice.am (you can do this yourself). After filling out personal data, they indicated the number of people in the family, how many people need psychological help, what food and hygiene products, clothing and other household items are required, including school supplies for children. At the end, they chose the cities and areas where the migrants would prefer to live, and found out the telephone number for contact. The Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs needs volunteers.
