Armenian International Policy Research Group (AIPRG)
The Armenian International Policy Research Group (AIPRG) is a nonpartisan, nonpolitical association that researches and encourages the discussion of public policy issues in Armenia and the Diaspora. AIPRG aims to consolidate the existing Armenia-related expertise by bringing together accomplished researchers and practitioners who specialize in economics, political science, law, and government affairs. The Group also aspires to advance capacity building by providing opportunities for aspiring young professionals to develop their skills through research and interactions with experts in their respective fields. In addition to conducting research, AIPRG intends to organize conferences and seminars designed to promote discussions and initiate policy dialogue regarding important Armenian and Diaspora-related issues. By way of research and conferences, the Group plans to collaborate with Development Agencies, International Financial Institutions, the donor community, individual researchers, and policy practitioners in order to achieve these goals and a greater understanding of the development issues related to Armenia and the Diaspora.
