Catholicosate’s Education Seminar Held in Lebanon

 

The second Armenian Education Diaspora Seminar was held at the Catholicosate’s Theological Seminary in Bikfaya, Lebanon from July 17-19, 2008.

 

The Armenian Prelacy of Canada representative, Mr. Moushegh Karakashian from Toronto’s ARS Day School, was among almost 100 Armenian school principals and Armenian linguistic, history and religion teachers from across the world, who attended this special seminar, in an attempt to find innovative ways to overcome the new challenges Armenian schools faces today.

 

In His address, His Holiness Aram I, Catholicos said, “We are facing new and different difficulties today and we are here today to discuss how we can reorganize our methods of teaching Armenian, particularly Armenian grammar, literature, history and religion. We have many communities that are struggling, need textbooks and sometimes even teachers.”

 

The first Armenian Education Diaspora Seminar was held by the Armenian Catholicosate in August 2004.
