From January 16 to 19, Pink Human Rights Defender NGO’s team conducted a work planning process aimed at reviewing actions derived from the organization’s strategic directions, strengthening internal systems, and preparing for upcoming developments.
During the planning, the team collectively reflected on the organization’s identity and development vision, defining the values and priorities that will guide its work in the coming years. As a result of the discussions, approaches to working with the LGBT+ community and the criteria essential for ensuring the safety of both beneficiaries and staff were clarified. Particular attention was paid to the quality of Pink’s services: existing mechanisms and the partnership network were reviewed, and areas requiring expansion to ensure accessibility for new groups were identified. Ensuring the organization’s sustainability was a key component of the planning process. The team discussed possible models of financial and institutional sustainability with the aim of securing Pink’s continuous and independent operation in the long term.
A separate discussion focused on risks related to the rights of LGBT+ people in the context of Armenia’s 2026 parliamentary elections. Possible scenarios were developed, and actions were outlined to protect the rights of the community under different potential developments.
This strategic planning process enabled the team to align experience with vision, strengthen shared responsibility, and establish clear benchmarks to guide Pink’s work throughout 2026.
