prosperity through hands-on programs, helping them to improve their communities
and their own lives. EPF's guiding vision is a South Caucasus region that is peaceful,
conflict-free and cooperative with a high percentage of civically engaged citizens,
socially responsible businesses, and sustainable, responsible and effective third sector
organizations. In all of its programs EPF takes into account the complex political and
socio-economic context in the region of the South Caucasus, and makes a multi-faceted
contribution to community activism, local philanthropy, peace- and confidence-building
in the region.

Goal of the program

human rights, establishment of freedom of media and speech, as well as to the promotion
of confidence-building between Armenia and the neighboring countries through
