Armenia’s Minister of Education and Science Armen Ashotyan has met with Lenka Bučková, Program Manager of the International Visegrad Fund’s “Visegrad 4 Eastern Partnership Program” (V4EaP).

The program was set up in 2011 to enhance cooperation between the Visegrad region and the countries of the Eastern Partnership in the areas of social and eco­nomic trans­for­ma­tion, democ­ra­ti­za­tion and regional coop­er­a­tion par­tic­u­larly through the devel­op­ment of civil soci­ety and sup­port of coop­er­a­tion among local gov­ern­ments, uni­ver­si­ties and indi­vid­ual citizens.

The parties discussed greater cooperation between the Fund and institutions of higher learning in Armenia and the possibility of jointly drafting educational programs.

In this context, Minister Ashotyan has organized meetings between Fund representatives and administrators of Armenian colleges and universities.
