    BLACK SEA PEACEBUILDING PLATFORM DISCUSSED IN YEREVAN

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/
    20.11.2009 20:15 GMT+04:00

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The National Citizens' Initiative (NCI) and
    the Analytical Centre on Globalization and Regional Cooperation
    (ACGRC) today held, at the NCI headquarters, a working discussion
    devoted to the start of the Armenia Initiative of the Black Sea
    Peacebuilding Platform (BSPP). The event brought together Armenian
    NGOs representatives, analysts and experts.

    At the beginning of the roundtable, its organizers briefly presented
    the history behind the founding of the BSPP. They noted that the
    initiative toward forming this Platform had started in October 28-31,
    when civil society conflict resolution experts from Yerevan, Baku,
    Tbilisi, ChiÅ~_inÄ~Cu, Bucharest, Kyiv, Stepanakert, and Tiraspol
    had met at the Romanian capital Bucharest. It was already decided
    during this meeting that the Platform will permanently function
    in all the countries of the Black Sea Region and will attempt to
    contribute, by way of continuous discourse and cooperation, to the
    pacific resolution of all existing regional conflicts, and to share
    expertise in peacebuilding.

    During the discussion held at NCI headquarters, the attendees
    underscored the need to unite and coordinate the efforts by all of the
    region's civil societies that seek the building and consolidation of
    peace in the Black Sea Region. To this end, the discussants expressed
    their readiness to become a part of the BSPP's Armenia Initiative.

    In closing, the roundtable participants decided to continue their
    working discussions and to hold other events toward strengthening
    the BSPP's Armenia Initiative.
