Hayastan All Armenian Fund finances development of website

Yerevan, February 25, 2009 – The Hayastan All Armenian Fund is financing the
development of a state-of-the-art website for Artsakh Public Television and
Radio. Through the four-month project, the company will be provided with two
Internet servers and a computer system, while technical and administrative
staff will receive training from E-works in web-content generation and site
management.

The initiative was designed following a technical-needs assessment earlier
this year, conducted by a Hayastan All Armenian Fund work group.

When the project is completed in June 2009, the site will feature programs
broadcast by Artsakh Public Television and Radio, as well as breaking news
and information about Nagorno Karabakh. The site’s audio and video clips
will also be accessible through Google and YouTube.

"With its support to this vital project, the Hayastan All Armenian Fund will
enable Nagorno Karabakh to have its voice heard across the world," said Ara
Vardanyan, the fund’s acting executive director.

The continued development of Artsakh Public Television and Radio has been a
priority for the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund. In December 2008, it donated a
variety of cutting-edge technical equipment to the Artsakh Public Television
and Radio, significantly enhancing its newsgathering capabilities and
broadcast quality. The project, worth U.S. $100,000, was sponsored by the
Armenia Fund U.S. Western Region.
