The Hamazkayin Armenian Educational and Cultural Society Eastern Region was founded in Cairo on May 28, 1928. We aim to empower our chapters and membership to nurture and promote Armenian arts and culture. Given our millennia long history, we are cognizant of the dynamic nature of the concept of identity. To that end, we strive to maintain our cultural identity and heritage and are committed to grow and further the contribution of the Armenian culture to the complex tapestry of world civilizations.
In 1990, three dynamic women from Boston, Massachusetts, from diverse backgrounds, skills and experiences, shared a common belief: the need for a new Armenian organization made up of women, governed by women, and focused on the interests and needs of women. It was against this background that in 1991, Eva Medzorian, Barbara Merguerian and Olga Proudian came together to formally organize the Armenian International Women’s Association (“AIWA”), a nonprofit organization with members worldwide. Without alignment to any political or religious group, since its inception, AIWA has been successful in bringing together creative women of various generations, diverse in interests and academic backgrounds, to fulfill its mission.
