YEREVAN, OCTOBER 9, NOYAN TAPAN. The presentation of the manual "Know and Act" published with the assistance of the OSCE office in Yerevan took place on October 8. The aim of the manual is to educate society and state officials concerning the reduction of corruption risks. It includes practical information on the functions, responsibilities and administrative procedures of local self-government bodies, notary offices and other institutions. "The experience of our public receptions shows that in many cases corruption is conditioned by the lack of information on their rights and responsibilities, as well as corresponding procedures among citizens and officials. The aim of this book is to fill that lack," Mark Boyanich, the Acting Head of the OSCE Office in Yerevan, mentioned when introducing the manual. The manual was composed by the "Millenium" Association for Education and Research based on the experience of the anti-corruption public reception center operating in the city of Martuni.
