THE MISSION
We consider “ARVAK” as an expert platform operating in the academic and analytical field which will seek to involve representatives of scientific and expert circles and organize open-source researches dealing with the security environment of the RA, Artsakh and all Armenians, as well as with their long-term strategic interests.
We also aim to form a community of experts around “ARVAK”, cooperate with like-minded people, organize and hold discussions on topics within the interests of the Center.
When choosing authors and defining research problems, we will be guided by the principles of impartiality and academic freedom.
