YEREVAN, JULY 16, ARMENPRESS: RA Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan
received today the students of Luys Foundation at RA Government. The
students are currently in Armenia for partaking in the Luys Develop
Armenia Program (LDAP). Within the framework of the program the
students will visit the cities of Gyumri, Jermuk, as well as Sevan's
Tsaghkunk and Artsakh's Vank communities.
They will endeavor to use their knowledge in the direction of
designing development projects and scenarios for Armenia. The
Governmental press service told Armenpress that in his welcoming
speech Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan mentioned that the Luys
Foundation is aimed at supporting talented young people by giving them
the opportunity to continue their education in the leading
universities of the world. He said he is sure the number of the
students, who take advantage of the opportunities of the Luys
Foundation, will increase this year.
`It is too important to us to form a new atmosphere, which is called
the Armenian World, and due to which we will create favorable
conditions for you for self-development and self-realization,' the
Prime Minister said. He underscored the importance of the role the
Luys Foundation and the Armenian National Competitiveness Foundation
play in the formation of the `Armenian World'. As to the role of
knowledge in the modern world, he said that `in the industrial society
the base of the economic system was the production of goods and
services, and in post-industrial societies the basic process is the
mental activity'.
`Knowledge changes the content of the process of organizing the
society,' he added. Executive Director of the Luys Foundation
Jacqueline Karaaslanian, Anahit Bakhshyan and Father Mesrop Aramyan,
members of the education board, addressed welcome speeches as well. A
