AGBU is pleased to announce the appointment of Arpi Vartanian as the
new director of its Yerevan Office. She will oversee the organization's
extensive operations and its growing programs and initiatives in both
Armeniaand the surrounding region.
A Michigan native and alumna of the AGBU Alex and Manoogian School
in Southfield, Ms. Vartanian comes full circle by joining the AGBU
Yerevan staff. She obtained her graduate degree at the American
Graduate School of International Management (Thunderbird), and went
on to pursue her career in Armenia. She brings to AGBU nearly two
decades of experience supporting NGO's on the ground in Armenia and
raising public awareness of Armenian issues from Washington, D.C.
Ms. Vartanian has served the Armenian Assembly of America (AAA)
extensively as Director of its both NGO Training and Resource Center
and its Internship Program, as well as acting as the Assembly's Acting
Executive Director, Yerevan Office Director and the Country Director
for the Armenia and Karabakh Offices. In each role, she has spearheaded
countless programs and built the capacity of Armenian NGO's.
AGBU Central Board member Vasken Yacoubian welcomed Ms. Vartanian,
stating, "True to AGBU's General Assembly slogan of "Engaging the
Future," the organization is expanding the scope of its projects and
activities for the betterment and prosperity of the Armenian nation.
As such, the role of AGBU Yerevan Office is becoming more important
and significant in fulfilling our vision locally, regionally and
worldwide. We are confident that Ms.
Vartanian's experience, motivation and knowledge of both the Diaspora
and Armenia will be instrumental in helping the office in meeting
these new challenges."
AGBU looks forward to watching its Armenia-based programs continue
to thrive under Ms. Vartanian's capable leadership.
