This study was written in the context of the European Union funded project “Promotion and Protection of Human Rights in Armenia”, implemented by UNDP, UNFAP and UNICEF. In addition to this paper, the project also included a workshop with the Armenian National Preventive Mechanism (NPM) and wider Ombudsman team on the ways in which they make and follow-up to recommendations – including recommendations made following visits to places of detention, on thematic issues linked to their mandate and in relation to legislation.
