For five consecutive years of activity of the British Council in
Armenia, over 100 young people from Armenia took master’s degree per
the "Chevening" Programme in Great Britain, Ambassador Extraordinary
and Plenipotentiary of Great Britain to Armenia Anthony Cantor said
during the event dedicated to the fifth anniversary of the British
Council in Armenia.

He said that the goal of the programme is to enable the young and
talented people to continue their education and take master’s degree

programme. " By this programme, we promote democracy development
in Armenia as we assist young people to become leaders in their
professional career", the ambassador said.

institutions of Great Britain.
