New Year's greetings from the Human Rights Defender Anahit Manasyan
"Dear compatriots,
Dear colleagues of the Human Rights Defender's staff,
I congratulate you on the occasion of the New Year, wishing you peace, a rights-based and value-based environment, faith in your own strengths, and a future. 2025 was a year full of challenges but also one of achievements, during which our staff carried out the mission of protecting and promoting human rights with great dedication and principle. In this context, I want to express special gratitude to the staff of the Human Rights Defender for their unwavering dedication, professional responsibility, and commitment to protecting human rights.
Our institution will continue its activities in accordance with the principles of the rule of law, the inviolability of human dignity, and equality. Our efforts will be aimed not only at responding to problems, but also at preventing systemic problems and developing institutional capacities.
We must strengthen awareness that protecting human rights is a continuous process that requires joint efforts, solidarity, and public responsibility, and that the values of justice and equality are the pillars on which a stable, democratic, and people-centered society is built.
The coming year will be a year of new opportunities, peaceful coexistence, solidarity, value-based progress, and mutual respect, for the sake of the full realization of human rights and social well-being. May these New Year days fill your homes and hearts with warmth, and love, humanity, and unity be the constant companions of our society.
