An extract from Mr. Ashot Bleyan’s diary note for November 26.

The educational project “Educational Garden in a Residential Suburb” is a continuous one and has its own history. On November 23 we properly presented it to the head of Malatia Sebastia Community new administration Davit Karapetyan. It was our first meeting and it was important to record the common character of our pedagogical views, the importance of the pedagogical garden in the inhabitant-residential area-local self-government relationships. Our project, being consistently presented by us as a community area and organization of community life is a touchstone ground for the city mayor and the head of the administrative district representing the election bloc “My Step”. The election slogan ″Happy Individual, Caring Community, Powerful State″ will remain a mere slogan without such touchstone grounds, new solutions to organization and entire changes of community life. Election bloc leader Nikol Pashinyan’s clarification of the slogan won’t help either: ″By saying caring community we mean encouragement of personal effort and work. Caring for people is helping and supporting them so that they can believe in their potential and break their hoplessness and affliction….″ The educational garden is endowed with such power. It is to our Nikol’s liking. He will come and say the continuation himself.

We all, voters and election candidates, individuals and organizations have got something to do so that we do not pass by the pre-election period of our political life in an idle way. We should establish a real communication and political relationships among the voters and election candidates.  That’s the source of the of the importance of our first meeting with the managing staff of the Malatia Sebastia administrative district, which, in the opinion of the sides, was a good start. We got to know each other better, made arrangements for the common cause.

Our next step is the visit of the City Council, the Mayor and his staff to our Educational Garden, which is considered a city-level project and is offered to be included in the 2019 city programs.
