About the Union
"HayaQve" as an initiative
"Hayaqve" was formed as the first civil legislative initiative in the history of independent Armenia, proposing to criminalize the recognition of Artsakh as part of another state on behalf of the Republic of Armenia and the denigration of the significance of the Armenian Genocide.
"Hayaqve" prepared a draft amending the Criminal Code of the Republic of Armenia, according to which an official who recognizes Artsakh as part of another state on behalf of the Republic of Armenia and/or denigrates the significance of the Armenian Genocide will be punished with 10 to 15 years of imprisonment.

"Hayaqve" today
Today, "Hayaqve" is engaged in shaping a new political agenda as a radical alternative to the current regime's course. The executive governing body of the "Hayakve" union is the board, which consists of nine members and is elected by the council for a one-year term.
The union's council makes all decisions related to strategic development and elects the board members and coordinator. The main operational structures of the "Hayakve" union are sectoral and program-based committees, as well as territorial structures in Yerevan and the regions of the Republic of Armenia.
