Armenian Criminal Justice System: Enhanced Training to Improve Performance

Under a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL), the National Academy of Public Administration (NAPA) and its partners in Armenia developed materials for training courses and workshops designed to improve the anti-corruption and human-rights performance of Armenia’s investigators, prosecutors and judges. The training courses covered special topics of Armenian and international law and procedures that are key to effectively fighting corruption and protecting human rights. The workshops focused on the practical challenges in addressing corruption and protecting human rights as well as best practices for effectively addressing those challenges.

In conducting this project, NAPA worked with three partners located in Yerevan, Armenia.
