The Citizenship Index baseline research is made possible by the support of the American People through the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) in the framework of “CapSLoc․ Capacities for sustained locally-led development” project (2023-2026). The contents are the responsibility of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of USAID or the United States Government.
“CapSLoc: Capacities for Sustained Locally-Led Development” project is implemented by “NGO Center” civil society development NGO, in cooperation with Urban Foundation, “Women for Development” NGO, “Armenian Caritas” benevolent NGO and “Compass” scientific-research, education and consulting center” NGO.
The Citizenship Index baseline research takes a picture of the “sense of citizenship” in Akhuryan community. We interpret the “sense of citizenship” as a mixture of feelings and social norms that shape the sense of belonging to the community, the sense of responsibility to its well-functioning and future development, the trustfulness and the trustworthiness towards the community members and its institutions as pre-conditions for cooperation.
