Community Center

General Information: Renovation and refurbishment of community centers according to modern standards is a key part of the social infrastructure component of the Rural Development Program. All the villages lack public locations where members of a community may gather for group activities, social support, public information and other purposes. The only gathering places are individual households, which cannot serve as a community uniting factor. To ensure the members of the communities have decent social life, the restored community centers are to include a library, an internet access point, etc.

Apaven

Current situation : The building of the community center is damaged beyond repair.

Solution : It is logically and financially feasible to establish a new 250-300 m 2 structure that would include both community administration and community center.

This is the regular train that serves the needs of the people of Armenia's Shirak region. It has not been replaced for more than forty years and still bears the (now rusty)symbols of the Soviet Empire. Convenience and comfort are two things one will not find here.
