On February 26, Armenian Ministry of Education and Science and Hai
Dat foundation concluded a Memorandum of Understanding envisaging
implementation of "Appreciation of the past helps us get to know
ourselves" program.

While signing the Memorandum Armen Ashotyan, RA Minister of Education
and Science, mentioned, "The program aims to improve teaching level
of Armenian studies and to develop up-to-date teaching-methodological
base at comprehensive schools."

According to the minister, program activities include creation of
Armenian studies classrooms as well as libraries at schools. Besides,
teachers will take special trainings. It’s also important to create
a high school specialized in Armenology, where gifted children will
study. Within the framework of the program, a credit transferring
system for universities will be developed.

Bagrat Yesayan, chairman of Hai Dat foundation, stated for his part
that it’s important to facilitate continuous improvement of Armenian
studies both at schools and universities of Armenia.

"That sector of education is the weakest and needs more funding. We
hope to create an Armenology school network in 21 countries upon the
completion of 3-year program. Afterwards, the high school, specialized
in Armenology will be formed," he said.

Minister Ashotyan expressed his gratitude to chairman of Hai Dat
foundation for the idea of cooperation and said, "Should the program
be successfully implemented, we hope to introduce it in NKR, too."
