package submission, as well as the transportation. As the LEAD is a pilot project for Armenia,
there was always a need for clarifications, deadlines and guidance, which YCCD provided with
responsibility and professionalism

Did you get enough support and guidance from the UNDP Team (Program Manager,
Experts)?

We did get the guidance especially in the following phase of the project implementation, as the

financial body. It is worthy to mention, that we got all of the necessary forms, documents from
UNDP team, as a part of our grant package.
