Established in 2002, ACGRC works as both a think-tank and an advocacy group, aiming to promotion of democratic values, strengthening of civil society and the rule of law in Armenia, development of free market economy, regional integration and peaceful resolution of regional conflicts. ACGRC supports public sector reforms and development of good practices in local governance, disseminates knowledge on legal issues, produces expert assessments and analysis of conflict transformation and regional cooperation issues, and supports initiatives that aim towards forming an atmosphere of trust and stable peace in the South Caucasus.

Our research interests include study of globalisation issues, study of global processes and their influence on regional cooperation, protection of human rights within the globalisation processes.

ACGRC has been one of the active supporters of the process of normalisation of relations with Turkey.

ACGRC's regular activities also include organising Schools on Human Rights and European Integration. Aiming to dissemination of knowledge about human rights among Armenian students and youth activists, the courses are organised in cooperation with the UNESCO Chair on Human Rights, Democracy and European Studies of Yerevan State Linguistic University. The schools have covered such topics as history and philosophy of human rights, constitutionalism, international covenants on human rights, anti-discrimination laws and so forth.

Statements:

The current discussion in Russia about the necessity of political, economical and social modernisation raises the question of the country’s ability to innovate and to compete on a global level. Centrally important to the debate’s success will be whether the state demands a monopolising role in the debate or whether it can be conducted with the active participation of the various powers in society. It can only be in the interests of Europe as a whole that the modernisation partnership which the EU has offered Russia is conducted on both sides by a well-informed and critical public. Essential prerequisites for this are strengthening Russian civil society and creating a framework for discussions that aim for a Europe-wide development which is both long-lasting and democratic.

The German-Russian Exchange and European Exchange Berlin have developed a position paper, “For a New Start in Civil Society Cooperation with Russia”, which has already been signed by a number of European foundations and non-governmental organisations. The signatories appeal to the EU and its member states to make it more straightforward for Russian civil society actors to cooperate with their European partners, and to markedly increase the financial resources available for this key area. As well as visa-free travel for civil society actors, they are demanding the establishment of a “Civil Society Forum EU-Russia”, which would be analogous to the EU’s Civil Society Forum with the countries of the Eastern Partnership, which was set up in November 2009.
