Sanitary

The ARCL from day one of its establishment (in 1930) has prioritised the health needs of the Armenian population; thus it has created clinics in the various Armenian communities in Lebanon. Later, it established the Health Committee which operates since 1995 in the Araxi Boulghourjian Socio-Medical Center (ABSMC) with the Public Health Department.

The committee operates to implement an awareness of “Healthy Life-style”. With this purpose in mind, many activities were achieved and continue to be implemented. Some of these activities include:

  1. Organizing series of weekly lectures addressing medical, psychological and social topics as well as round-table meetings for all family members organized at the ABSMC’s Tenjukian Hall and in the centers of various ARCL chapters.
  2. Recording various lectures on videos to make them available to all ARCL chapters.
  3. Producing various booklets and pamphlets which provide general health information and statistical data.
  4. Conducting intensive First Aid courses in various institutions and schools of the community.
  5. Organizing campaigns to increase awareness for prevention and early diagnosis of some diseases.
  6. Conducting workshops for the youth to fight alcoholism and drug addiction and to prepare a responsible youth.
  7. Organizing a series of lectures held at schools and youth institutions to nurture a healthy sexual education.

All these activities are dedicated to support the physical, mental and physiological health of the individual as well as to the development of the Armenian community.
