The board and staff of Armenia Tree Project (ATP) together with Ohanian family members hosted the ceremonial opening of the new Michael and Virginia Ohanian Center for Environmental Studies in Margahovit. Vice Prime Minister Armen Gevorgyan and Lori Governor Arthur Nalbandyan were the guests of honor at the ceremonial opening. 

Following its successful model of the environmental education center in Karin Village, ATP will host students, eco clubs, teachers, farmers, and professionals from Armenia and abroad at the new Ohanian Center in northern Armenia. The first beneficiaries of the center will be the population of Lori and Tavush provinces. The educational facility is located close to ATP's Mirak Reforestation Nursery, which will allow theory and practice to be combined.
