Moving To Armenia From Us

Who We Are

Founded in Yerevan in 2012 by 12 repatriates and diasporans, Repat Armenia Foundation was established to advance the repatriation agenda and support Armenians in reconnecting with, engaging with, or returning to their homeland. Since 2019, the organization has operated with the support and funding of the H. Hovnanian Family Foundation, enabling the expansion of its programs and services for repatriates. As of January 2026, Repat Armenia functions as the Repat Armenia Branch of Birthright Armenia Inc., continuing the mission and vision established by its founders.

Repat Armenia unites hundreds of like-minded people with diverse backgrounds and life experiences, who provide potential repatriates and newcomers with soft landing and networking support, by providing information and necessary resources for those who wish to engage with Armenia.

Repat Armenia stands by you as you explore the possibilities, weigh the options, and hopefully embark on the journey to come, live, and enjoy an engaging and participatory future in the homeland.
Getting engaged with us is easy, #becauseYOUcan.
