AGBU Armenian Virtual College (AVC) continues to promote genocide awareness and education through a series of online events and projects dedicated to preserving the memory of the Armenian Genocide.

Through virtual museum tours, personal storytelling projects, educational meetups and conferences featuring scholars and descendants of historical figures and genocide survivors, AGBU AVC transforms remembrance into an opportunity for global awareness through free and accessible learning experiences.

Highlights include a virtual tour to the Armenian Genocide Museum, personal stories by descendants of survivors (“My Armenian Story of Survival”), online meetups and resources about Diana Apcar’s heroic life and Leon Z. Surmelian’s timeless memoir (AVC Learning Zone), as well as other online events, international conferences, livestreams, and creative initiatives like teaching history through art and geography.

The most recent event on the topic, a webinar dedicated to the 110th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, was held on May 3, 2025. The guest speaker, Suren Manukyan, Head of the Vahagn Tatryan Department of Comparative Genocide Studies at the Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute, Head of the UNESCO Chair on Education and Prevention of Genocide and other Atrocity Crimes at Yerevan State University, presented the topic "From a Fateful Revolution to the Dream of Pan-Turkism: Causes of the Armenian Genocide”.

For more than a decade, AGBU AVC has been implementing innovative approaches to education in the sphere of Armenian studies. Accessible to students and educators worldwide, AGBU AVC’s annual online events ensure that history is not only remembered - but also honored and held accountable by generations to come.
