Among the ideas Mr. Attarian offered in his gripping and pithy audio-visual presentation were the Armenian Genius Project, Diaspora’s participation in the Legislative Assembly of Armenia, and a Global Mobilization Learning Initiative.
The "Genius Project" would encourage and nurture ‘geniuses’ by securing regional or international funding support. The "Mobilization Learning" initiative would mobilize and motivate Diaspora youth to participate in local and international issues. Another proposal was a stamp project, whereby communities and groups would campaign their governments to issue Armenian-themed stamps, similar to the project that former MP Sarkis Assadourin helped launch several years ago.
