The first episode of Pari Louys with Paros will be focussing on the second largest city in Armenia, located North-West of Yerevan in the Shirak region, Gyumri. With a population of about 120,000 people, Gyumri’s growth is hindered by the ramifications of the 1988 earthquake that still hold Gyumri’s residents in a cycle of poverty. Juxtaposed against a growing tech industry, among other modern advancements and growth in the region, Gyumri has the unique potential to break free from the cycle of poverty. Join us as we dive deeper into this uniquely positioned region in Armenia.
