ECONOMIC GLOSSARY FOR JOURNALISTS PUBLISHED IN ARMENIA

ARKA
Sep 26, 2008

YEREVAN, September 26. /ARKA/. Presentation of an economic glossary
for Armenian journalists took place today in Yerevan.

Surveying 13 local mass media, the authors of the book came to a
conclusion that Armenian journalists either rarely use economic words
or use them in a wrong context, said Ashot Markosyan, editor.

"It was necessary to give the general concept of these words,"
he added.

The issue of the glossary was the second stage of economic journalists’
training program, said Anna Baghdasaryan, director of the Economic
Journalists’ Club.

During the two years of the program, 25 local journalists attended
training courses and workshops.

"We journalists know that only we can upgrade ourselves," Baghdasaryan
was quoted saying.

The organizers of the training program were the Economic Journalists’
Club, the Yerevan Office of UNDP, the Central Bank of Armenia,
Armeconombank and SIL-Group.
