Argentine Ministry of Education publishes new textbook on Armenian Genocide

YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 21, ARMENPRESS. Argentina Ministry of Education introduced a new textbook titled “Armenian Genocide, Questions, Answers and Proposals for Education”. The authors of the materials of the books are Argentina Ministry of Education and Armenian National Committee of South America. As “Armenpress” reports, referring to Nouvelles d`Armenie, the presentation event was attended by Argentina Education Minister Alberto Sileoni, Director of the National Institute Against Discrimination, Xenophobia and Racism Pedro Mouratian, and Carolina Karagueuzian, Director of Armenian National Committee of Buenos Aires, along with a number of Ministry officials. Regarding the difficulty of teaching children about the Armenian Genocide Alberto Sileoni said that, there were difficulties in that connection and the book would help to introduce the events of 2015.

“This Ministry of Education was committed not only with the formation of the young, but also with the way the educational community has accompanied things that had been invisible for many years,” said Pedro Mouratian. “What has occurred in our country in terms of memory, truth and justice has been revolutionary and refreshing,” added.

Carolina Karagueuzian emphasized that Argentina is the only country that “publishes and disseminates educational material on the Armenian Genocide at the federal level”.

Argentina recognized the Armenian Genocide in 2003.
