YEREVAN, JUNE 17, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. A project of building
a Center of Armenian Culture near Surb Echmiadzin Armenian Church
in Tbilisi has been worked out. Leader of Armenian Apostolic Church
Georgian Armenian Diocese Archbishop Vazgen Mirzakhanian presented
the project at the meeting with RA Minister of Diaspora Hranush
Hakobian. As Hayern Aysor was informed by the Ministry's Department
on Contacts with All-Armenian International and Church Structures,
the Archbishop said that such a center would be especially important
in the respect of consolidating the Armenians living in Tbilisi,
having a well-organized Armenian community. More than 360 thousand
dollars is required for building the two-storeyed building. It was
mentioned that the project needs sponsors.
Besides, on the initiative of Archbishop Vazgen Mirzakhanian it is
planned to teach an additional Armenological subject at Armenian
schools in Georgia, History of Armenian Church. As far back as
in 2008, at his meeting with Hranush Hakobian, the leader of the
Georgian Armenian Diocese made such a proposal. The Ministry of
Diaspora together with the Archbishop worked out a program of Georgian
Armenian teachers' retraining, according to which, retrainings were
to be held in Georgia, with the participation of specialists sent
from Armenia. However, according to the RA Ministry of Finance, that
program envisaged much funds and was not approved. It was decided
to include the program of Georgian Armenian teachers' retraining
in the retraining program of Diasporan teachers implemented by the
RA Ministry of Education and Science since 2000, which is currently
implemented jointly with the RA Ministry of Diaspora. The first group
of 70 Georgian Armenian teachers will arrive in Armenia soon. In total,
90 Georgian Armenian teachers will pass retraining within the framework
of the program.
