This Guidebook will help the deputies establish better communication with the state and non-public bodies, non-governmental organizations, think tanks and their voters in order to achieve the set goals and increase the efficiency of the parliament’s work. This Guidebook will also boost the quality of legislative mandates and exercise of electoral representation.

This Guidebook has been developed within the framework of “Strengthening the capacity of the National Assembly in strategic political debate and communication” project. The project was implemented by the International Center for Human Development non-governmenal organization within the framework of UK’s Good Governance Fund, with support of the British people.

The translation of the Guidebook into English has been made within the UNDP “Modern Parliament for a Modern Armenia” project, co-implemented with the OxYGen Foundation, the International Center for Human Development, and the Westminster Foundation for Democracy, in cooperation with the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia. The project is funded by the United Kingdom's Good Governance Fund and the Government of Sweden.
