Support plan for cultural activities of religious groups

The plan, first implemented in 2019, aims to form the basis for targeted financial support to be provided to activities in the Cultural Sector, generated from the religious groups of Armenians, Latins and Maronites. Specifically, the implementation of the plan aims at the development and adoption of a stable and appropriately shaped financial tool for the financial support of significant activities, implemented by the offices of the Representatives of these three religious groups. Therefore, its implementation is directly related to the pursuit of establishing a capable and effective means of disposing, through transparent procedures, of the required financial resources for the timely and effective financing of activities that have substantial scope, result and importance.

For the first year of implementation of the plan, activities were approved and funded for the following offices:
* Office of the Representative of the Religious Group of Armenians
