Raffi Hovannisian to Deliver the Keynote Luncheon Address
Policy Forum Armenia (PFA) will hold its Second Annual Forum in
Washington, DC from Feb. 28 to March 2 to provide an opportunity for
policy practitioners, academics, and the public to discuss
Armenia-Diaspora relations, especially perspectives on and approaches
to the present-day challenges facing the Armenian nation.
During the First PFA Forum on the global economic crisis, held in
Yerevan on May 25, 2009, PFA brought together an unprecedented line-up
of academics and policymakers from Armenia, Russia, Turkey, Ukraine,
and the UAE to discuss the implications of the crisis for Armenia and
to help devise policy prescriptions to mitigate them.
The Second PFA Forum will also gather a large number of
intellectuals - academic and public policy practitioners - to discuss
challenges and help devise new modes of engagement between Armenia and
its diaspora. Day 1 of the forum - Feb. 28 - will be held at the Cosmos
Club, Washington's premier venue for social and policy events, and
will feature the presentation of PFA's report on `Armenia-Diaspora
Relations: 20 Years Since Independence.'
On March 1, or Day 2, the forum will be held at Georgetown University.
This part of the forum is open to the public and includes a full day
of deliberations on Armenia-Diaspora relations. Former Armenian
Foreign Minister Raffi Hovannisian will deliver the keynote luncheon
address.
The program for Day 3, or March 2, is limited to only young
professionals and will include thematic meetings with various
international agencies and public and private organizations in order
to continue the discussion on Armenia-Diaspora relations and offer
young professionals opportunities to network in Washington.
