IADAAM Project has officially launched its school awareness and engagement visits, aimed at introducing students to the world of modern, climate-resilient, and innovative agriculture.
Students of Avshar Secondary School were welcomed by Susana Martins, International Aid and Cooperation Officer at the Delegation of the European Union to Armenia, and Audrey Gourdien, Project Manager for Armenia at the French Development Agency (AFD), who both highlighted the importance of youth education, advanced agriculture, and the sustainable development of rural communities.
The IADAAM project brings an important message to schools: agriculture in the 21st century is no longer only a tradition. It is innovation, technology, environmental responsibility, and one of the key drivers of future development.
This initiative aims to nurture a generation of informed, responsible, and innovative young people who will shape a more sustainable, efficient, and climate-resilient agricultural future for Armenia.
Every seed planted today has the potential to grow into meaningful change tomorrow.
The Irrigated Agriculture Development in Ararat and Armavir Marzes (IADAAM) project, financed by the European Union (EU) and implemented with the support of the French Development Agency (Agence Française de Développement), aims to transform irrigated agriculture in Armenia.
Implemented by the Ministry of Economy of the Republic of Armenia, the project’s technical assistance is provided by a consortium comprising AESA – Agriconsulting Europe SA, Avenue Consulting Group LLC, Strategic Development Agency NGO, and 3R Strategy LLC, with the aim of strengthening agricultural policy and advancing sector reforms.
