CivilNet.am puts great focus on covering developments in Turkey, as well as global developments having to do with Armenian-Turkish relations. Through reports, videos, interviews and analyses, today’s quickly evolving Turkey becomes more understandable.
The European Union Armenia-Turkey Normalization Project, as well as the UK Embassy in Armenia support this endeavor.

CLIMBING THE MOUNTAIN offers a global audience the opportunity to join the complex, personal discussions on a still dark, still hidden history of relations between Armenians and Turks. This a series of travelling programs with a pair of celebrities – Armenian and Turk – each of whom talks about their “personal journeys” dealing with historical and political tensions arising from the Armenian Genocide, its recognition and denial, and their own views on the way forward.

The Civilitas Istanbul Center will present issues of interest and concern to Armenia and the Armenian Diaspora to the opinion and policy makers in Istanbul, while simultaneously attempting to understand and communicate to Armenians the ongoing questions and discussions within Turkish society. Civilitas is the first Armenia-based organization to establish a presence in Turkey. The Center is located in Hidivyal Palas, owned and operated by the Karageuzian Foundation of Turkey, which has generously made the space available to Civilitas.
