Accompanied by director of educational programs of "Luys" foundation
Jacqueline Kara-Aslanyan, RA Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan today
visited the Yerevan State University. During a scheduled meeting,
they briefed the students on the objectives of the Fund and the ways
it may use to support those Armenian students studying at the top-rate
universities of the world.
Member of the board of "Luys" foundation, RA Prime Minister
Tigran Sargsyan noted that the meeting is devoted to Foundation's
educational programs: "The fund was set up under the high patronage
of the President of the Republic of Armenia and will handle cultural,
scientific and educational questions. It is a private initiative under
which benevolent contributions from the private sector will be used
to reach the set targets.
Due presidential patronage, this initiative will be kept in
focus and, therefore, it will have to be given broad publicity
and transparency. We shall be trying to abide by this principle in
implementing all our functions," the Prime Minister said and added that
there is some misunderstanding concerning the charitable activities
of the Fund, "in particular, we ha ve organized charitable concerts,
sponsored cultural programs, including the gala event dedicated to
Jivan Gasparyan's 80th birth anniversary and Jethro Tull's concert
in Yerevan. We provide support to such entities as in our opinion
carry out activities in conformity with the mandate of the Fund."
With reference to the educational component, the Prime Minister
indicated that an educational agenda is already out for this year
to a total budget of AMD 400 million. The educational program will
be coordinated by a governing council composed of the Prime Minister
of the Republic of Armenia, Deputy Chief of Presidential Staff Vigen
Sargsyan, CBA Vice-President Vacheh Gabrielyan, representative of
the Armenian Apostolic Church Ter Mesrop, MP Anahit Bakhshyan and
others. Educational program coordinator Jacqueline Karaaslanjan was
elected by open and transparent vote. The 2008 financial report of the
Fund along with auditor's the findings have been published in media.
At the end of the meeting, the students in attendance engaged in an
easy-going dialog with the head of RA government.
