ArmInfo. Germany will grant Armenia 4mln EUR for creation of a
bio-sphere reserve on the basis of Shikahogh preserve, says the head
of the Armenian Office of KfW bank Karapet Gevorgyan.

Additional 1mln EUR will be granted for research, development of
programs in the field of environment protection and organization of
regional conferences.

This may seem a small sum but this is the biggest money ever provided
for an ecological project. The grant will be provided in the coming
months.

The Armenian-German inter-governmental financial cooperation was
started in 1995.
