Diana and her family arrived in Yerevan from Nagorno-Karabakh in September 2023. Their family of five, including three children aged 3, 7, and 11, now live in a single room within a factory building.
“We barely manage to meet primary needs because nobody works in the family,” Diana explained. The challenges are compounded by the difficulty in finding employment.

In their first months in Yerevan, targeted assistance from the Arbeiter-Samariter-Bund (ASB) played a vital role. “It was very targeted assistance from ASB; we received this aid in our first months when we arrived here. With the support of ASB, we bought food and essential items,” Diana said.
