LOS ANGELES – The USC Institute of Armenian Studies has kicked off its third cycle of the USC POLICY FELLOWS PROGRAM, in collaboration with the offices of Los Angeles City Councilmember Paul Krekorian and Los Angeles City Mayor, as well as the Armenian Government through the office of Armenia\u2019s Deputy Prime Minister Tigran Avinyan.<\/p>\n

The collaboration between the sister cities of Yerevan and Los Angeles initially took shape in 2018, following Armenia\u2019s \u201cvelvet revolution\u201d and transition towards implementing democratic institutions. The program selects and places mid-career professionals from Armenia in policy planning positions throughout the City of Los Angeles to learn from and contribute to the process of improving lives in both cities.<\/p>\n

For the first time, the program is hosting a candidate from Karabakh\u2019s government. Hayk Mayilian, project manager at Karabakh\u2019s Ministry of Culture, was selected together with\u00a0 Armineh Chakhalyan, a legislative aide to Yerevan\u2019s Deputy Mayor, to participate in the Fall 2019 term of the program. Mayilian has been placed in LA\u2019s Department of Convention and Tourism Development for the duration of his stay. Chakhalyan is currently working\u00a0 in the Los Angeles Department of Transportation.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe USC Policy Fellows Program is a unique opportunity for me to learn about the City of Los Angeles. I spent my first week in Councilmember Paul Krekorian’s City Hall office and now I’m in the Los Angeles Transportation Department, where I am learning about the public transportation system, traffic control system, and more. After the program, I am planning to invest my knowledge in improving the public transportation system in Yerevan. The USC Policy Fellows program is also a great opportunity for me to learn more about the Armenian-American community,\u201d said Chakhalyan.<\/p>\n

In addition to their work at the City of Los Angeles, during their four-month placement, the fellows are able to take advantage of the rich resources available through the Institute, including attending lectures, conferences, discussions, and meeting with relevant scholars and practitioners.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe program provided by the USC Institute of Armenian Studies is a very good opportunity to learn how everything works in the U.S. I’m involved in every working process in the Convention and Tourism Department of LA. I try to get as much information as possible so that I can be able to take some methods that I liked here and use them in the future in Artsakh,\u201d said Mayilian.<\/p>\n

The previous cohort included Lucine Dayan, assistant to the chief of staff to Armenia\u2019s prime minister, and Andranik Tevosyan, consultant in the Water Committee of Armenia. Dayan worked in the Emergency Management Department in Los Angeles and Tevosyan worked in the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power.<\/p>\n

The Program\u2019s inaugural fellows, Anna Aktaryan and Davit Shindyan, arrived in the Fall of 2018 and were placed in the Bureau of Engineering and in the Department of Sanitation, respectively.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe premise of the USC Policy Fellows program is to build off of the Sister City relationship in a deep and contentful way,\u201d said Silva Sevlian, associate director at the USC Institute of Armenian Studies. \u201cThe professionals chosen for this selective fellowship bring years of experience in their field and use the opportunity to learn best practices and amplify the efforts of government initiatives in Los Angeles and at their post at home.\u201d<\/p>\n

The program has been made possible through the generous support of the JHM Foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n <\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":139,"featured_media":1595,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1594","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-institute-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nUSC Policy Fellows Program Kicks Off With Participants From Armenia and Karabakh<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/armenian\/2019\/12\/05\/usc-policy-fellows-program-kicks-off-with-participants-from-armenia-and-karabakh\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"USC Policy Fellows Program Kicks Off With Participants From Armenia and Karabakh -
