It was part of the culmination of my first two years in Armenia. The American University of Armenia was my second home — often nearly my first — during the past two years. My appreciation for the welcoming atmosphere and the friendly faculty and students cannot be understated. I would like to thank my dean, professors, and classmates for the help and warmth they gave me. More specifically as to this research project I must express my most sincere gratitude to Dr. Arpie Balian, professor, employer, and mentor. Her direction and assistance were instrumental for the completion of this research and supportive for the completion of my studies in general. Her guidance has not only served my academic purposes but has given me inspiration that I will truly carry for the rest of my life. I would also like to thank the UNDP Armenia office which readily and eagerly provided assistance as I needed it. Their passion for the topic of this research goes beyond mere employment to devotion for the communities and people they affect. As to that point, lastly I would like to thank the Mayor, Local Community Leader, and residents of the Lusadzor community, who eagerly welcomed me into their community and their homes.
