A child's early years are important for their health, physical growth, and development of thinking and social skills.

Poor nutrition, neglect, and lack of education hinder children's growth. This affects both their physical and mental development. As a result, they are unable to reach their full potential in adulthood.

World Vision Armenia supports parents and service providers in enhancing the development of children under five. They aim to create a healthy environment that fosters their growth.

World Vision Armenia's Youth Empowerment program aims to provide a supportive space for young people. This space allows them to actively engage in and pursue their goals, dreams, and concerns. These goals, dreams, and concerns are related to development and well-being. The program thinks that young people with enough money and resources can make jobs and assist others in being productive.

In Armenia, society views young people aged 14-29 as a vulnerable group. They face poverty, lack of education, unemployment, inequality, and environmental problems. Many young people still lack access to information, equal opportunity to receive quality public services, sufficient skills and knowledge to pursue career goals and benefit from opportunities in the labour market.

When economic fairness improves, parents make more money and have more assets. This, in turn, leads to better financial situations for families.

World Vision works to incorporate and strengthen economic development initiatives as part of its integrated programming approach. These initiatives help people have stable income, save and grow their assets, and have different ways to make a living. This makes households, communities, and the country stronger and more resilient.
