KARABAKH 28 March 2024 - 14:31
Sabina Aliyeva, the Azerbaijani Commissioner for Human Rights (Ombudswoman), recently embarked on a significant outreach initiative in a demonstration of commitment to human rights and inclusivity.
The Ombudsman, as part of her mandate to ensure the rights and freedoms of all citizens, irrespective of their background, engaged with residents of Armenian origin residing in the city of Khankendi, Caliber.Az reports citing the Ombudsman's Office.
The meeting, which took place as part of the Ombudsman's mandate to safeguard the rights of every individual within Azerbaijan's borders, aimed to assess the well-being and address the concerns of vulnerable groups within the community.
According to the Ombudsman's Office, Aliyeva's visit included a comprehensive inspection of a shelter established by the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection to support vulnerable segments of the population. During her visit, Aliyeva examined the conditions within the shelter and inquired about the extent to which the rights and freedoms of residents of Armenian descent were being upheld, both within the facility and in their interactions with services outside its premises.
Furthermore, Aliyeva conducted thorough monitoring of the provision of essential services, including food supply and social support provided by psychologists and social workers to residents of the shelter. The visit also provided an opportunity for individuals to voice their concerns and grievances, with Aliyeva ensuring that their appeals were heard and addressed promptly.
The Ombudsman's Office reported that residents of Armenian origin expressed satisfaction with the compassionate approach and the conducive conditions provided during the meeting. As part of ongoing efforts to enhance accessibility to assistance and support, the institution also introduced residents to the "916" - the 24-hour call center of the Ombudsman, ensuring that individuals have access to assistance round the clock.
