Today UN Corner was launched at the Armenian State Pedagogical
University, and students, university professors and journalists learned
more about the use and importance of the Spanish Language at the UN
during the observation of the Spanish Language Day in Armenia.
The events were organized by the UN Department of Public Information
jointly with the Armenian State Pedagogical University.
More than 1000 UN publications and multimedia materials which were
provided by the UN for the UN Corner will serve to further educate
youth on UN values and UN functioning. The professors and students
of the university will also use the UN Corner to organize UN-related
cultural and educational events.
The UN Corner was opened in accordance with a Plan for Cooperation
between UN Department of Public Information and the Armenian State
Pedagogical University, which was signed at the ceremony.
"We highly appreciate our cooperation and are happy to implement
joint activities, which allow youth to be involved in the UN work
and to provide their contribution to the sustainable development and
Armenian's achievement of the Millennium Development Goals", said Ara
Eremyan, the vice-rector of the Armenian State Pedagogical University.
During the Spanish Language Day at the UN event the audience enjoyed
some Hispanic dances, flamenco and spiritual music. The students
from the Yerevan State Pedagogical University made presentations on:
"Spanish Language in the World and in Armenia". In the meantime,
a number of UN publications were distributed to the students and
professors of the University from the Bibliobus of the National
Library.
The UN Department of Public Information Representative in Armenia,
Maria Dotsenko said: "It is important that Armenians learn Spanish,
which helps them to open the borders to the diversity of Hispanic
culture and to be citizens of the world. We live in a multilingual
world where the languages we speak, read or write affect the way
we think and act, and help to better understand how crucial the
multilingualism of the UN is for the implementation of its complex
agenda: promotion of peace, diversity, cross-cultural dialogue and
partnerships towards better human development".
Ambassador of Argentina, Diego Ernesto Alvarez Rivera, spoke about
contribution of the Spanish Language to the promotion of UN agenda
and encouraged youth to further study it.
