Description: The publication is one of the outcomes of the Armenian Heritage Conference, held in Bern, Switzerland, 27-28 May 2025. The conference was organized by the World Council of Churches (WCC) in collaboration with the Protestant Church in Switzerland, following a request from the Mother See of Holy Etchmiadzin. It responded to the forced displacement of the Armenian population from Artsakh/Nagorno-Karabakh and the grave threats facing Armenian cultural and religious heritage in the region.
It compiles conference papers, expert analyses, and reflections, situating the Armenian experience within a wider global context. It is intended as a resource for churches, policymakers, academic institutions, and civil society actors engaged in protecting cultural and religious heritage, defending human rights, and advancing reconciliation and sustainable peace.
