The EU has been running an initiative for Armenia for over a decade now. One of its aims has been to try and reverse a brain drain which has seen the young and educated leave as soon as they can because of lack of opportunities. In 2015, the initiative held a job fair in Paris to encourage those young bright sparks to return home but others are still leaving. Marianna Deinyan reports from Yerevan.
Marianna Deinyan went to Armenia with support from the Heinz Kühn foundation which is a not for profit organisation which aims to support young journalists in the state of North-Rhine Westphalia.
