CONFERENCE : SOUTH CAUCASUS - BETWEEN FROZEN CONFLICTS AND FROZEN PEACE
Wilco de Jonge Bron: Press Now
Oneworld, Netherlands
March 16 2006
A program about the condition of the civil society in the emerging
democracies in the South Caucasus.
This area is one of the most complex and conflict-prone
regions of the former Soviet Union. Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia; as
well as the disputed areas of Abkhazia, South Ossetia and
Nagorno-Karabakh are home to a true patchwork of ethnic and religious
groups.
Since the collapse of the Soviet Union this has caused several
complex and long lasting conflicts. Furthermore the democratisation
process in these country's is bothered by the everlasting strong
influence form Russia in this region. There are however also a few
positive developments. Azerbaijan and Armenian have taken the first
steps towards a peace process, and since the Rose Revolution of 2003
Georgia tries to outwrestle herself - with a fresh national awareness-
of the Russian sphere of influence.
The evening is mainly organised around two themes: the freedom of
press and expression in the South Caucasus, and the relation Caucasian
Countries have with Russia.
With: Akaki Gogichaishvili (Producer from Rustavi 2 - Georgia), Boris
Navasardian ( President of Yerevan Press Club - Armenia) and Arif
Aliyev (Editor in Chief of the Gun, daily newspaper in Azerbaijan).
Moving Worlds is an initiative of the debalie in co-production
with NCDO.
This evening is also in co-production with Press Now, Mira Media and
Media diversity Institute.
