ANC Australia will publish articles from Australian news sources
reporting on the Armenian Genocide from 1915 to 1923
SYDNEY--The Armenian National Committee of Australia has announced the
official launch of a social media campaign, titled "#OnThisDay."
This year-long campaign, dedicated to the Centenary of the Armenian
Genocide, is designed to better educate the wider Australian public on
the horrors of 1915 - 1923.
The Australian media was a world leader in reporting the massacre of
Armenians at the hands of the Ottoman Turks, which resulted in
unprecedented coverage throughout all Australian newspapers of the
day.
ANC Australia has compiled an extensive catalogue of these newspaper
clippings from Australian archives, including from the Australian, the
Sydney Morning Herald, The Age, The Argus and other notable
publications of the day, and will be releasing them on a daily basis
via ANC Australia's Facebook page.
ANC Australia's Executive Director, Vache Kahramanian said: "This is a
ground-breaking initiative, one which ANC Australia has been working
on for some time."
"There is an incredible array of articles, which cover the horrors of
the Armenian Genocide as well as the extensive humanitarian aid
provided by Australia at the time," Kahramanian added.
The #OnThisDay campaign, which is running in conjunction with the
Armenian National Committee of America's #GenocideDiary campaign, will
result in an unprecedented amount of material being released from
Australian and American newspaper archives.
ANC Australia has also been working on a publication titled "The
Armenian Genocide... As Reported by the Australian Press: Volume 2,"
which will be published by Armenia Media, Inc. later this year.
