IN ANTELIAS A PAN-DIASPORA CONFERENCE ON ARMENIAN EDUCATION STARTS ITS WORK
ANTELIAS, LEBANON - Initiated by His Holiness Aram I, Catholicos of Cilicia
and organized by the Catholicosate of Cilicia, a Pan-Diaspora Conference on
Armenian Education will start its discussion on Thursday morning, 5 August
2004 in the main hall of the Theological Seminary, in Bikfaya, Lebanon. The
theme of the conference is "The Armenian Education today in a Diaspora
situation". Around one hundred intellectuals and experts almost from all
communities in Diaspora will address this timely issue in different
perspectives and contexts.
The Conference will start with a critical and analytical evaluation of the
present estate of the Armenian Education in Diaspora, and will proceed to
identify the emerging concerns and perspectives. In light of that the
Conference will endeavor to redefine the Armenian Education vis-à-vis the
new challenges and the new realities of the present world. The Conference
will conclude its deliberations by making a declaration, where the major
guidelines and orientations for a new educational policy for the Diaspora
will be outlined.
The minister of Education, the president of the Cultural and Educational
commission of the Parliament and the president of the Union of the Armenian
writers in Armenia will attend this conference.
Because of the unique importance of the Conference and the special
attention that the Armenian Catholicosate of Cilicia gives to the Armenian
Education, His Holiness Aram I will address the Conference and take part in
its deliberations and actions.
