After spending December and January in Armenia working and volunteering with multiple organizations working with refugees from Artsakh, I'm proud to have been part of the All for Armenia team in Syunik collecting data and crafting this comprehensive report. From on-the-ground data collection to research and insightful analysis, I'm excited to share our findings and recommendations. Special thanks to Aram Hartounian, Alec Ohanian, MPH and Abi Russell for their contribution on this report!

Happy Armenian Mother's Day from the border 🏔️ to the Diaspora! 🌎🌍🌏 Make jingalov hats, not war 🫓🌿🇦🇲 While delivering aid, we are always greeted with gifts that display the deep gratitude and boundless generosity of our people. These women are always ready to share, regardless of how little they possess, a quality that is deeply embedded in traditional Armenian culture. Pictured is a woman from Syunik, Armenia, who joyfully shared with us some Jingalov Hats, a flatbread stuffed with various indigenous mountain herbs that is native to both Syunik and Artsakh. Breaking bread with our brothers and sisters at the border is a welcome opportunity to learn, exchange, and cultivate rich relationships that span generations and countries of origin. #armenianwoman #armeniangenerosity #AllForArmenia #mothersday #motherslove #bordervillage #diaspora

🐣🏡🇦🇲 This weekend, we celebrated Surb Zatik (Holy Easter) with our community at the border village of Kornidzor! Kids painted eggs, created Easter-themed artwork to decorate our KorniTun community home, and visited the village church. We were thrilled to see the smiling faces of the 40 kids who participated in our Easter activities! We wish our community a blessed Easter Sunday! 🌞 #AllForArmenia @kornitun #eastereggs #easter #easterArmenia #bordervillage #village

📦⛑️📦🥫📦🏔️🇦🇲 This past weekend, our Operations Lead Hovhannes drove down to Syunik 📍 to deliver aid to a total of 40 families in Tegh village near the border. The beneficiaries were a mix of locals as well as those forcibly displaced from Artsakh. Through collaboration with P&T NGO ℹ️ and the Tegh municipality 🏫, we were able to identify families defined as high-needs, defined as rural families with 3+ kids, elderly, and people with disabilities. Thank you to P&T NGO and Tegh municipality for also assisting in the distributions and helping us bring much-needed assistance to families in need during "crazy March," 🏔️🌨️ as Syunik is still facing powerful snowstorms. As always, we are extremely grateful to all our generous donors who helped make this mission possible! #AllForArmenia #bordervillage #peopleinneed #helppeopleinneed #Armenia #Syunik #humanitarianaid Hovhannes Verdyan

🎥🎞️🎦 What does it look like to spend one month volunteering in #Kornidzor with #AllForArmenia? What does it look like to live in a border village, in AFA's KorniTun community home? 🏡 Our French-Armenian volunteer Matthias spent all of January in #Kornidzor hosting martial arts and language classes for local children, delivering humanitarian aid, and, most importantly, creating lifelong bonds with the village community. Check out this video he created that captures his unforgettable experience, and read his reflection below (translated from French): "KorniTun quickly became a landmark for me. The experiences I had, the moments of sharing, and the feeling of being at home — that's really what describes it best. Everything you experience in this village and at KorniTun is the best way to immerse yourself in the culture and partake in moments you'll never forget: playing nardi with the neighbors, drinking tea with the locals you invite to KorniTun as you pass them on the street, taking English and Karate classes with the kids... As I said to Matthieu, co-founder of the organization, the experience at KorniTun is something you can't really imagine before you live it. It's thanks to All For Armenia that all of this is possible, so thank you to all the people who welcomed me and made this experience unforgettable. And this is just the beginning..." Together, we are stronger at the border. 🇦🇲🗺️🏔️ #bordervillage #villagedevelopment #volunteer #Diaspora #armenianvillage #homeland #Syunik #syunikarmenia #Kornidzor #KorniTun https://lnkd.in/eh2MAzJs
