For the first time, the two Ministries of Education and Culture made joint projects. Here are programs that are equally important for both departments, about which they talking about when they were still oppositions and which are now to be brought to life. The first project is after thirty years, the restart of the abonnement system. From October, the project will start operating in a pilot mode in the country, since through this method they will understand what kind of problems arise and what solutions can be given to problems. Schoolchildren will be provided with three free tickets for visiting theaters, concert halls and museums. And in order not to make the visit formal, the teacher-student's joint decision should be about what a concert or presentation is more appropriate to visit. The second project is a grant competition program that will include analytical, creative, creative 50 artists in the fields of classical music, fine arts and literature, each of which receives $ 1 million drams. "This is not a way of getting money," said Lilit Makunts, "this is an implementation of artist's creative idea, and also the making the contemporary art recognized. According to Education Minister Arayik Harutyunyan, two more surprises are being drafted, which will be announced in the near future. "In general, these ministries should not be separated. Now, they joke about the unification of the two ministries. It remains to decide who will remain as minister. This is a joke," says the Minister of Education and adds," By the way, during the First Republic, it was the Ministry of Education and Culture."
