Armenia Constitution Day
July 5 · Level 6 · #956 of 2238
Armenia's Constitution Day marks the adoption of the country's constitution by referendum in 1995. It puts the foundations of public life in the spotlight: citizens' rights, the organization of government and the rules that connect them.
How it is celebrated: official messages, public discussions and educational events explore the constitution. Talks consider both the protections citizens receive and their responsibilities within society.
The original constitution of independent Armenia went directly to the voters. Its adoption was decided by a nationwide referendum, rather than by parliament alone.
