Oleg Dulgaryan is a prominent Armenian environmental human rights defender. He is the Head of Centre for Community Mobilization and Support (CCMS), a grassroot human rights NGO working to address social and environmental issues in Armenia and promote human rights, civic activism, and community development.
He has faced a series of threats and attacks, including harassment, intimidation, defamation, property destruction, legal actions through Strategic Lawsuits Against Public Participation (SLAPPs), and even the targeting of his close relatives such as his mother. In most of these cases, the alleged perpetrators were mining companies and other people linked to them.
Oleg, alongside many other local activists, has been outspoken about unsustainable and destructive mining practices, toxic pollution resulting from past industrial activities (such as the waste dumps from copper and molybdenum mines in Akhtala or the “arsenic cemetery” in Alaverdi), poor water and air filtering issues of large mining companies, and the numerous attempts of opening new extraction sites.
We highlight his courageous work as a human rights defender, community activist and leader, breaking the narrative that he is anything but inspiring.
