A Beacon of Hope for Armenians with Disabilities

Description

The Paros Chamber Choir uses music to promote inclusion and create opportunities for people with disabilities to participate fully in Armenia’s cultural life. The choir brings communities together through meaningful performances that encourage awareness, connection, and equal participation.

Known for its artistic excellence and inspiring mission, the choir gives talented individuals with disabilities a platform to share their voices, build confidence, and engage with audiences in a powerful way. Participants are eager to grow, perform, and continue expanding the choir’s impact.

With continued support, the Paros Chamber Choir can reach more communities, strengthen inclusive cultural programs, and help create a society where people with disabilities are recognized, valued, and empowered through the arts.

The Need
Persons with Disabilities (PWD) in Armenia are mostly excluded from cultural activities. Due to the difficulties accessing cultural centers, concert halls, museums, etc., people with limited mobility, especially wheelchair users rarely have an opportunity to attend a concert or cultural event. In addition, public perceptions of PWD prevent their inclusion in cultural activities.
Short Term Impact
The audiences of the four concerts will be no less than 500 persons. The press conference will secure a wide coverage of the project outcomes, and the media reports will increase the number of people learning about the Choir and its activities to at least 15,000.
Long Term Impact
The success story of the Choir and its performances will encourage PWD to live a full life and will push decision makers to make the cultural facilities accessible. In a longer perspective, the rights of thousands of Armenians with disabilities will be promoted.
Sponsors Benefits
The names of the donors/supporters will be published on paros.am, unison.am, disability.am websites, in addition to The Paros Foundation website and in any appropriate press materials. Their names will also be listed in the concert programs published within the framework of the project. In addition, the organizers will thank the donors during each of the concerts. The organizers may also consider placing the donors’ banners on the stages of the concerts. The press release for the concluding press conference will include the names of all of the donors.
