Noravank Foundation

"Noravank" Foundation was established in 2001 with an aim to conduct strategic researches in cooperation with Armenian and foreign senior staff, to analyse the problems of the Armenian community, Armenology and the "church-state-society" relations.

The Noravank Foundation also carries out an educational program to inform young researchers about up to date ideas prevailing in social and political sciences via the seminars and conferences, the multi-language journal of "21st Century" and "Noravank Foundation Bulletin".
