As an independent review of higher education in Armenia, the report is based on research conducted between December 2012 and July 2013, and includes all types of higher education institutions operating in Armenia; public, private, and intergovernmental/international

The event will conclude with a public discussion involving the education, civil society and donor communities, around issues raised in the report and possible ways of addressing them.
