После просмотра первого эпизода исследования образования в Армении мною было сделано несколько выводов об основных проблемах данного сектора в нашем государстве. Если смотреть со стороны обучающихся, то основной проблемой можно выявить некую потерянность, отсутствие мотивации у обучающихся. Как мне кажется, данные аспекты неразрывно связаны без определенной видимости своего будущего, ученикам как школ, так и высших учебных заведений непонятна цель их действий, при том, что основным мотиватором для них в наше время является материальная составляющая.
Но что, если они будут вступать в каждый этап обучения с понимаем того, что именно даст им этот этап, включающий в себя те или иные предметы. Ведь по сути математика это не только иксы и игреки, это освоение некоторых навыков, например логики и аналитики, которые используются как при изучении иных дисциплин, так и во многих (если не во всех) профессиях. То есть, если у обучающегося будет некий ориентир на предметы, направления и др., возможно его взгляд на обучение изменится с пониманием необходимости той или иной дисциплины, этапа обучения.
Также было бы полезно проводить экскурс профессии не только в устных рассказах, но и подробном представлении ситуации на рынке труда, зарплат, необходимости профессий и требуемых навыков для успешного выполнения деятельности специалиста того или иного направления.

There is a great connection between Armenia and India which spans over 500 years. The Armenians settlement in India went through great length to protect, preserve and advocate the Armenian Race. The Indian Armenians are one of the only Armenians who with the little population made an everlasting impact within and outside of the Armenian diaspora.

It is necessary to invent Armenian-language games so that children living in the Diaspora do not forget our language and learn Armenian so that they can play.
Convention Participant
We must create a mechanism by which the peoples who experienced Genocide can receive compensation for the losses they suffered.
Convention Participant
Preservation of statehood is an important guarantee of our security. Responsibility should not be forgotten, compensation should be achieved, and the role of the state is important here. A strategy in this regard should be developed at the state level.
Convention Participant
There should be online platforms for training Armenian teachers.
Convention Participant
1. Education must be at the top of the political agenda, number one priority for the government
Organize high-level discussions with all the stakeholders (students, teachers, experts from all the sectors of economy )
2. We don't have an appropriate education system, creativity environment in schools, which creates uncertainty in education
3. Feedback loop is not working in education sector, problems are usually not reveled as a result of implemented research
4. We should start reforms in education sectors from two aspects: reforms in adults' education and in preprimary education
When children see adults that aren't learning, they don't want to learn as well
5. Governance in education should become a little bit psychological, like in business. Value the role of psychology in education
6. Educational reform can't be imported, it can be created and developed
7. Teacher attestation has one positive side – as a result, those who pass it will get higher salaries. This will also motivate those who start off their careers as teachers to aim for higher-paid jobs. On the other hand, the attestation system creates other, bigger scale problems: not necessarily all those who pass the attestation perform well as teachers in the classroom. So, what’s the index of a good teacher – we need to start from there. Additionaly, good test takers and subject experts are very different concepts

I'd ask that waste management be considered as part of the overall plan.
Trash and litter fit on the top-ten list of initial impressions about Armenia, important to consider when we want people to return here.
Our beautiful marzes are lined with discarded bottles and bags. Trash dumped into gulleys leads to toxins carried by small streams into rivers and ultimately to farms. Batteries and fluorescent bulbs leaching metals into our water can cause neurologic problems that will certainly be a challenge to diagnose.
Currently there is paper, glass and plastic recycling available. We should push for battery, fluorescent and e-waste recycling.

Մենք պետք է ունենանք մեկ գաղափար ու մեկ ռազմնավարություն, թե ուր ենք ուզում գնալ։ Կարող ենք ունենալ այս մեկ փաստաթուղթը, բայց կարող ենք նաև ունենալ այդ մեկ նպատակին հասնելու տասը ճանապարհ։

4. Education creates gross value added, however there is a gap between labor market and academia
5. It is important to increase integration between Armenia and Artsakh and use the whole economic potential of Artsakh
6. Artsakh has good environment for agriculture (Intensive gardens, smart barns), and huge educational potencial

1. There is more or less complete data and statistics on the Armenian energy field from 2015-2016. This is one of the issues we should concentrate on – the availability of complete and transparent information.
2. In comparison to other countries in the region and those with compatible conditions with Armenia, according to indexes of energy security, energy consumption, and environmental stability, Armenia is left behind.
3.Data shows that during the past 10 years Armenia has managed to increase energy generation by 30%, in the meantime the energy loss was decreased as well. There still is much potential for decreasing energy loss.
4. There are problems with reliability of energy supply
5. Energy strategy 2040 drawn by the government includes 70 projects in 11 directions. The conclusion we drive from what we have analyzed is that the country needs to put its efforts into:
Developing industry with high added value;
Boosting energy security and independence;
Increasing operational efficiency and reliability;
Enhancing the stability of tariffs;
Improving transparency, reliability, and availability of data and statistics;
Setting long term ambitions yet realistic targets;
Making the most of the current global energy context to the country’s advantages.
6. Most importantly, the key here is to gather a maximum number of field specialists, have brainstorming sessions and proceed from there
7. Armenia has a big potential in solar energy
8. Hydroenergy resourses are used with their maximum capacity, wind power can be used only in some regions , there is a problem with the wind density
