Pre-electoral deposit paid for registration as a candidate is quite high in urban communities, vis-à-vis the earnings. This financial limitation is one of the main barriers which prevent women from entering political competition. From 49 urban communities in Armenia, we have no women Mayor. I have an ambition to become the first female Mayor in Armenia at the upcoming (October 2) local elections. Whilst I am ready to use all the information channels in support of my candidacy and my political programme, I seek support of my community, as well as gender equality apologists to raise the electoral deposit, in the amount of 1100 USD. If I pass the threshold of 5% votes, I will get the deposit back. In this case, I will direct the amount towards leadership advancement and political empowerment of women in my community through capacity development events. In my present role as a Local Council member, I put all my effort towards political and economic empowerment of women, and will continue to do so in any of my role. Setting an example is my credo. My supporters can contribute in multiple ways: through sharing information on my campaign, donation, as well as encouragement.
