The Hayastan All-Armenian Fund will soon complete the construction
of a multifunctional community center in Karin Tak, a village in
Artsakh's Shushi Region. The project is co-sponsored by the fund's
Argentinean affiliate -- with a donation from the Devejian family --
and the government of Artsakh.
Located in a canyon 2.5 kilometers below Shushi, Karin Tak is built on
steep terrain, with sheer vertical cliffs towering above it. Despite
many difficulties, including a sloping geographical position, this is
a vibrant village, with a population of 660. The two-story community
center being built here is slated to open its doors within a few
months. Consisting of a health clinic, an events hall, a library,
a computer room, and the mayor's office, the center will be a boon
to the everyday life of the community.
The community-center project will complement other development projects
carried out by the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund in Karin Tak, including
a water network and a renovated school gym.
"The community center, which is being constructed in a neighborhood
at the entryway of Karin Tak, will soon welcome the residents of the
village and visitors," said Ara Vardanyan, executive director of the
Hayastan All-Armenian Fund.
On January 26, the village celebrated Battle of Karin Tak Day. On that
day in 1992, Azerbaijani troops surrounded and attacked the village,
intent on annihilating the Armenian population and moving on to other
targets. Yet the residents of Karin Tak, despite being outnumbered
and outgunned, mounted a fierce resistance and emerged victorious.
