/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Armenian National Science and Education Fund
(ANSEF) launched Wednesday the annual grants award ceremony for
Armenia scholars.
"Founded 10 years ago under the Fund for Armenian Relief, ANSEF directs
its activities at stopping brain drain from Armenia, by providing
assistance to young and accomplished scholars," FAR Armenian branch
Director Bagrat Sargsyan said during the ceremony.
At that, he noted that the grant programs implemented over the past 10
years were targeted at 235 groups, which includes over 1000 scholars.
This year their number reached 27. The winners of the 2010 grants are
mostly scholars aged 26-63, who work in spheres of natural sciences.
Within a year, they'll get $ 5 thousand for conducting their research.
"I understand this isn't a big sum, but I believe it will contribute
to developing such programs. I am hopeful we'll establish productive
cooperation with scholars for implementing various scientific
programs," Bagrat Sargsyan said in conclusion.
The Fund for Armenian Relief (FAR) is a US humanitarian organization
which provides short-term emergency relief and implements long-term
programs for the economic growth and social development of Armenia.
FAR was founded in response to the devastating earthquake in 1988.
Headquartered in New York City, it has three offices in Armenia and
Nagorno-Karabakh and more than 150 full-time employees. It implements a
wide range of programs, from operating daily soup kitchens and summer
camps to providing educational scholarships and scientific grants to
building irrigation systems
