The World Armenian Congress and the Union of Armenians in Russia,
mainly the youth organizations of the Union, have put forward an
initiative under heading "In commemoration of the innocent martyr";
they have decided to plant 1,5 million trees in Yerevan until the
100th anniversary (in five years) of the Armenian Genocide, to create
a Park of Rebirth.
On March 31, the tree-planting program has started. Trees were planted
in the schoolyards of N13 musical school, N169 secondary school after
Shiraz, N163 school of Nor Norq, N 174 school of Charbakh, as well
as in the territory of the metropolitan regiment of the Armenian Army.
The schools and the regiment expressed readiness to take care of the
newly-planted trees.
