Diaspora generated great interest among Armenian communities worldwide.
The large number of RSVPs received by the University of Southern
California's Institute of Armenian Studies is a good indication of the
public's enthusiasm for informed discussion regarding current issues of
serious concern to Armenians.
Among the topics to be explored are mechanisms of transnational

comparative analyses of Armenian and non-Armenian diasporas, and
modalities to strengthen Armenia-Diaspora relations to promote Armenia's
economy and confront the threats faced by Artsakh and the Homeland. The
symposium will feature nationally and internationally renowned
personalities and scholars including Gov. George Deukmejian, Amb. John
Evans, Attorney Mark Geragos, Journalist Mark Arax, Publisher Harut
Sassounian, Ms. Archalus Tcheknavorian-Asenbauer, Dr. Gaidz Minassian,
and Professors Levon Marashlian, Stephan Astourian, Andrew Demirdjian
and R. Hrair Dekmejian.
The aim of the symposium is to promote intellectual discourse, serious
discussion of issues, and syntheses of ideas and experiences within an
academic milieu. The symposium is open to the public. Complimentary
breakfast and lunch will be served. Saturday, November 20, 2010, 9:30
