What we do

“Promoting Efficiency and Reforming Services through Enhanced Human Resource Management for the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Police Service” project is built on the consolidated achievements from past and ongoing initiatives funded by the US/INL, European Union, World Bank, and other international development partners. It focuses on strengthening the institutional capacities of the Police and the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MOIA), enhancing effectiveness, and introducing new possibilities for development. The Project facilitates knowledge exchange between relevant institutions and other countries that have undergone successful Human Resource Management (HRM) reforms, and the lessons learnt are heavily considered. The Project also relies on the best practices from the successful partnership of the INL and UNDP globally to promote HRM reform in the MOIA and the Police in Armenia.
