Perhaps, as a diasporan, you’ve put off repatriation due to careers, family matters, financial obligations, or legal realities. After all, uprooting your entire life isn’t an easy decision and isn’t always realistic. At the same, you still want to contribute to Armenia, you still want to make a positive impact on the country that shapes a big part of your identity.
Well, here’s the good news: meaningful Armenian diaspora engagement no longer requires a permanent move! Pathways now exist for Armenians who want to stay connected without fully repatriating. The options are endless: short-term return to Armenia, project-based work, targeted investments, youth exchange programs…you name it!

Fighting Against Mine Exploitation as a Starting Point for Repatriation
Having received an education and lived abroad for many years, Artush Yeghiazaryan, a native of Leninakan, one fine day in 2018 returned to his hometown—now Gyumri, formerly Leninakan—bringing with him solid professional experience.
The decision to return home was not made immediately; moreover, it came only after nearly five years of active work in and for the homeland: “In 2012, like most Armenians who do not live in Armenia but live with Armenia in their hearts, I came across a Facebook post about a group of young people who were fighting against the opening of a mine in Teghut. This situation had a strong impact on me; I contacted them and offered my help. We became friends, and the story of the mine became the starting point on my path back home.”

Leaving Armenia Is an Unhealed Trauma
Recently, the Forum of Armenian Culture and Art took place in Yerevan, organized by the Office of the High Commissioner for Diaspora Affairs of the Republic of Armenia. The founder of Armenian Creators, Lusine Khumaryan, who has been living in the Netherlands for many years, was also invited to the forum. Her visit became an occasion to get acquainted with her and to speak about the platform of Armenian creators she founded.

“Kotayk? Really? All that way from Kentron?” This was a common response whenever I told people that I was moving out of Yerevan after living on Pushkin street in the heart of the city center for more than 4 years. It almost felt like one of those video games, where the character hasn’t unlocked areas on the map yet.
You see, Armenia might look compact, but living here isn't as one-size-fits-all as you’d think. In the span of a single afternoon, you can leave a crowded Yerevan intersection and drive past apricot orchards to arrive in a quiet village where someone you’ve never met still greets you like you’re old family.

In Search of Oneself
Yaroslav Zabavskiy is a veteran among his compatriots in terms of the length of residence in Armenia: the first “stone” in establishing and strengthening his roots here was in fact laid in 2016. Yaro (as he is called in Armenia) has been living here for ten years already.
At a young age, Yaroslav left the Moscow region for Wales to study in the UWC educational system, which radically changed the course of his entire future life. After graduating from college, he went to the USA to receive higher education in the field of international relations.

“Lav kline,” an old man mutters as he warms his hands around a small glass of homemade moonshine outside his stone house in Sisisan, Syunik region. Looking at his face and haggard eyes, you can see decades of hardship; he’s a veteran of the first Artsakh war and participated in the 44-day war in 2020. Yet, when you ask how things are going, he replies as if he’s seen too much to waste his energy on despair. “Lav kline,” he says. All will be well.
