the study results, specific recommendations have been developed. In
Armenia, soil composition, flora, current situation in economy and
its agricultural sector, dynamics of natural disasters (landslides,
torrents, floods) in the Debed River Basin were analyzed. During
the round-table meeting, the experts will present the work done to
inspire wider public discussion on the project.
