Title of the project։ Institutionalising a Volunteer First Responder Service in Armenia (VolFiRe)
Country / Location։ Armenia / nationwide
Date of the Action։ 01.12.2022 – 31.07.2026
- Context & background
The Civil Protection system in Armenia is currently mainly based on professional responders from governmental institutions. They are to a large extent on-duty firefighters and other paid staff of the Ministry of Emergency Situations (MES). But Armenia has numerous remote areas particularly affected by the limited coverage through the regional fire and rescue services.
The supporters of the project “To contribute to the establishment of inclusive and relevant quality education for all in Armenia” not only actively participate in various events organized, but also share their knowledge, experience, and inner world changes with other students. Under the title “My Success Story,” we will present the emotions and experiences of like-minded people on how inclusion has become a way of life. Below, we present Mary’s success story.
