We are committed to the future and prosperity of Armenians living in Armenia and the Diaspora, the preservation of Armenian identity, and the maximal integration of these two inseparable parts of the Armenian nation. The strength and viability of Armenia and the Diaspora are dependent on one another, and our goals and policies are meant to further these mutually dependent interests. The Office of the High Commissioner acts as the critical bridge - bringing our people together and fully engaging Diasporans with the homeland. Through the active participation and commitment of the Diaspora, we can create the homeland that we have all dreamt about and in doing so strengthen and empower the Diaspora.
