    The meeting was held to discuss the development of more than 150 rural
    communities in Armenia and Karabakh. The meeting was organized by
    Armenia Fund's French affiliate - Fonds Armenien de France, chaired
    by Bedros Terzian, a member of Armenia Fund's international Board
    of Trustees.

    "The project was officially unveiled by Minister Oskanian during the
    Armenia - Diaspora Conference held in September 2006 in Yerevan. The
    project will be officially presented at Armenia Fund's international
    Board of Trustees meeting on May 7, 2007," says the press release.

    It is time for diaspora to unite around Hayastan Fund and help
    implement the large-scale village development program, Armenia's MF
    said at the meeting.

    In her turn, Hayastan All-Armenian Fund's Executive Director, Naira
    Melkoumian stressed that since the Fund's establishment 15 years ago,
    the organization has implemented large scale infrastructure development
    projects and humanitarian aid in Armenia and Karabakh.

    The Hayastan Fund will continue its projects in Karabakh, she said.

    In her words, currently large-scale development projects are being
    implemented in Mardakert and Hadrout regions of Karabakh.

    The village development program complements the government-implemented
    development initiatives, as well as other development projects
    earmarked under the United Nations Development Program and the
