    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Participants of the Armenian Assembly of America
    Summer Internship Program in Armenia met Monday with Deputy Mayor of
    Yerevan Kamo Areyan to exchange views on education, environment and
    cultural issues.

    Young students expressed their concerns about the 'poverty' of Armenian
    universities and the condition of old buildings which symbolize the
    Armenian architecture.

    Mr. Areyan briefed on the projects the city administration is going
    to launch. He also stressed the important role of Diaspora.

    The Armenian Assembly of America Summer Internship Program in Armenia
    was established 30 years ago and aims to introduce college-aged
    students to life in their ancestral homeland, and to foster the skills
    needed to help them become the next generation of leaders. Interns
    participate, working in various government offices in Armenia, such
    as the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sports, Ministry of Finance
    and Economy, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, as well as with various
    non-governmental organizations such as the International Center for
    Human Development.
