Which YEE Member Organization are you a member of? What are your organization's main activities?

I am from "Khazer" Ecological and Cultural NGO. It's a 21 years old NGO which main activities are to facilitate restoration, protection and popularization of cultural and natural heritage in Armenia and abroad, promote the enhancement of general awareness, knowledge and education among students, schoolchildren and public on global environmental concerns.

Why did you want to become a member of the YEE board?

This was the second year for me to participate in the AM of YEE. The main reason I wanted to become a board member is that it's a great opportunity to share my knowledge and experience, to meet a lot of new people, to be a part of a big network, and also an opportunity to represent YEE in different important meetings and to make it more visible.

What is your main aim as 2012-2013 Board Member?

My main aim is to promote YEE and let people know about what we do. As an External Relations officer my main aim is to strengthen cooperation with our partners and to find new ones.

Which environmental problem worries you the most?

The most important problem for me today is peoples' awareness. There are some people who don't know about anything and other ones who know and don't care. This I think is the main thing which doesn't let us solve problem efficiently.

What is your favorite place in nature?

My favorite place is the ocean.
