Business lunch with women leaders and active women.

The energy of women leaders on one platform
Today, we brought together active women leaders from Shirak Province and across Armenia for a warm and productive business lunch. This was not just a meeting, but a genuine exchange of experiences, challenges, and success stories.

We discussed the most important topics:
• The challenges of leadership and ways to overcome them,
• The power of women’s participation,
• The importance of mutual support.

Important note: The meeting was free from any political or other forms of propaganda. Our organization follows the principle of neutrality, and this was purely a professional and inspiring platform aimed at collaboration and mutual support.

Today’s guests:
• Zaruhi Batoyan — Member of the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia
• Lilit Muradyan — Acting Head of the Programs and External Relations Department of Gyumri Municipality
• Lilit Tovmasyan — Head of the Culture and Youth Affairs Department of Gyumri Municipality
