Building a safer and more inclusive society for all individuals in the country, by establishing a discussion platform between state authorities and civil society organisations on LGBTI rights.
In collaboration with the National Agency for the Prevention and Combating of Violence against Women and Domestic Violence, needs were identified, and future actions were outlined. This collaborative effort is expected to enhance the development of more effective public policies and strategies aimed at ensuring sustainable protection of LGBTI people in the country.

Collaborative efforts between public and local authorities to create more inclusive societies were promoted during the discussions held between municipal counsellors, police officers, social workers, and activists from civil society organisations from the Republic of Moldova and Italy, on the theme "Città contro l’odio" (Cities against hate). This collaborative initiative fostered the exchange of local experiences and the work to combat hatred and promote inclusion, especially for the most vulnerable members of society.

The improvement of the quality of justice through mediation is being further supported through the launch of a new course. The new Council of Europe's Human Rights Education for Legal Professionals (HELP) programme course is launched in collaboration with the Mediation Council and the Academy of Justice of Azerbaijan and will benefit 50 mediators from across the country.

As part of the mentoring programme for legal professionals to improve women’s access to justice, the Armenian Academy of Justice and the Administrative Court confirmed their commitment to train additional mentors in the country. Over 300 informal gender focal points are now part of the regional network established across judiciaries in the Eastern Partnership countries through the programme.

Law enforcement officers in the country improve their skills to address effectively domestic violence cases and accompany victims. A Council of Europe Human Rights Educational for Legal Professionals (HELP) course was launched in an adapted version. It consists of three key modules that explore the various forms and impacts of violence, emphasise victim-centred responses, and provide essential investigative techniques.
