Our Projects
The uncertain future of the forgotten villages in Vayots Dzor
We visited the Vayots Dzor villages with fewer than 100 inhabitants, conducted an inventory, explored their locations and features, infrastructure, and residents' daily lives. Additionally, we tried to understand whether these villages are being considered for the possible resettlement of Artsakh residents and what measures are being taken in that regard.
Getting to Know the Audience and Organizing Crowdfunding Campaign
Within the framework of the project, an initiative of getting to know the reader of Hetq and Hetq Media Factory and the fundraising campaign were organized. Subsequently, with the readers’ support, the Hetq Media Factory team conducted an investigation into labor rights. The project was implemented under the grant awarded by the Media Initiatives Center.
Environmental Issues of Lake Sevan: An Interactive Storymap
Hetq Media Factory students and faculty jointly studied the eutrophication problems of Lake Sevan presenting the findings on the water quality of rivers running into the lake, and stories of socio-economic life through the interactive map. A drone footage-based data was used to illustrate household and economic waste piles around the lake on the map. The project was prepared in cooperation with the US Embassy and the Heinrich Boell Foundation Yerevan Office - South Caucasus Region.
