Within the framework of the competitive Erasmus+ International Mobility program, the exchange of professors between the Department of Forestry, Wood Sciences and Design and the Armenian National Agrarian University (ANAU) based in Yerevan, Armenia, was recently completed. Specifically, Professor Dr. Michalis Vrachnakis visited ANAU in the period 19-27 March 2022, where he delivered a series of lectures to the students and professors of the University.
Mr. Vrachnakis also had the opportunity to discuss with ANAU academics the possibility of starting a project for the inventory of traditional agroforestry systems in Armenia. For this purpose, the possibility of further cooperation in the framework of Erasmus Knowledge Alignment was sought, as both parties support the idea of including students in their activities in order to acquire skills and experiences in inventory techniques applied in the field. Accordingly, during the period 10-14 May 2022, the Department of Forestry, Wood Sciences and Design was visited by Professor Dr. Areg Karapetyan.
Mr. Karapetyan had the opportunity to take part in the three-day educational excursion of the Department's undergraduate students organized between May 11-13 in the Prespa area. During this he had the opportunity to take part in the educational exercises of the students and gave a series of lectures on the integrated management of forest landscapes with abundant examples from the forest areas of Armenia. As part of the Department's extroversion, it is expected to support such bilateral visits with the presence of students.
