On Sunday a seminar of journalists took place at Stepanakert press
club, which was organized by the Civil Society Institute (Armenia).

Journalists from the Netherlands, Armenia, Italy, Lithuania and
Karabakh took part in the seminar. Similar seminars were held
in Martakert, Martuni and Shushi. The purpose of the seminar
is discussions of the topic we and others, journalist exercise,
writing of articles for the Your and My Newspaper which is published
by volunteers.

Rugile Andzukevichute from Lithuania said in an interview with
Karabakh-Open.com they are volunteers who have been living in
Armenia for already 7 months and every month their newspaper visits
one of the regions of Armenia. It was their initiative to arrive in
Karabakh. Christiana Nicoletti from Italy said they wanted to meet
with their peers in Karabakh, work with the youth because meeting
the local people is quite different from reading an article about
Karabakh in the Internet. Christiana says Karabakh is an Armenian
territory and at the same time it borders with Armenia, and it was
very interesting to talk to the people of Karabakh about it. Lusine
Gasparyan from Karabakh says it was interesting to hear how others
evaluate us. Lusine thinks such events should be held more often.
