ISAR Opens NGO Resource Center in Mingechevir

Since September 22, ISAR has been operating an NGO Resource Center in Mingechevir.  During

an opening ceremony for the Center, government officials, local NGO leaders, and

representatives of international organizations operating in Mingechevir had a chance to get

acquainted with the services of the Center.  ISAR-Azerbaijan Country Director Ms. Kim Perlow

welcomed the guests and introduced them to the work of ISAR.  Baku Resource Center Manager

Naida Ramazanly gave visitors additional details about the services to be offered by the

Mingechevir Center. NGOs expressed enthusiasm for the center, pleased that they would have

access to information previously unavailable in their city. This information includes nearly 100

journals and books in Azeri, Russian, and English about NGO management and related topics,

such as fundraising, financial management, environmental protection, and children’s issues.

While ISAR’s regional program has been using a traveling staff to work with NGOs outside of

Baku over the past year and a half, the Mingechevir Resource Center is ISAR’s first NGO

Resource Center outside of Baku. The Center represents part of ISAR’s overall effort to help

Azerbaijan’s non-governmental organizations (NGOs) develop. The Center provides services

similar to those offered by ISAR’s Baku Resource Center, including a library, computer center

offering free computer access as well as e-mail and Internet, to local NGO representatives. The

two staff members of the Mingechevir Center will work with Baku-based staff to organize

training, consultations, and meetings for the local NGOs from Mingechevir and surrounding

areas.


ISAR made the decision to open the Center in Mingechevir because the city is home to a growing

and developing local NGO sector, and is located near the cities of Sheki and Ganja, where ISAR

also works.

During the first month that the Center has been open, NGO representatives and individuals

interested in NGOs from Mingechevir and surrounding regions have received consultations about

the NGO sector in general, as well as on grant-writing and working with the mass media.  Several

information sessions for NGOs have been conducted at the Center, including a discussion on the

role of volunteering in Azerbaijan. Additionally, several school groups have watched

environmental videos at the Center, and ISAR’s Student Outreach Program staff have carried out

interactive workshops at secondary schools in Mingechevir to teach children about the concept of

local NGOs.

The Mingechevir Resource Center is located at 19 Nizami St., Apt. 21, Mingechevir, tel: (8-147)

5-33-74, 

mingechevir-isar@azeurotel.com

. The Center is open Monday-Friday from 10:00 am-

6:00 pm.
