"For Equal Rights" – NGO

"For Equal Rights" – NGO (Armenian: «Հանուն հավասար իրավունքների» ՀԿ) is a non-governmental public organization based in Armenia. It was established in 2015 with the stated aim of developing the capabilities of young people in the Republic of Armenia and increasing their civic activism. The organization operates primarily in the Armenian civic and educational space, and it is best known for founding and running the Article 3 Club (Armenian: «Հոդված 3» ակումբ), which was its first major project, launched in 2016. The Article 3 Club is named in honor of Article 3 of the Constitution of the Republic of Armenia. Its purpose is to raise the most important issues affecting society in Armenia and to serve as a platform for dialogue between different segments of society. In addition, the club aims to develop the capacities of young people, journalists, and civic activist groups. Because of the prominence of this project, the organization is today sometimes better known by the name of the Article 3 Club than by its formal name. Beyond the club, "For Equal Rights" – NGO organizes alternative educational programs through which it seeks to develop young people's skills and increase their involvement in social and political processes. The founder of both the organization and the Article 3 Club is Gayane Abrahamyan, a public figure and a member of the 7th convocation of the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia. The organization is a civil-society entity rather than a commercial enterprise. It does not sell products in the conventional sense; its "offerings" are programs, platforms, and educational initiatives aimed at civic engagement, dialogue, and youth development in Armenia. Its work is centered on Armenia and on Armenian-language public discourse, and its website is forequalrights.org.
