On April 27th,2019, the already traditional flower gathering event took place in the Tsitsernakaberd Memorial Complex.
YSU Ijevan Branch also took a part in flower gathering event in Tsitsernakaberd.
The initiative combines the idea of giving these flowers a new lease of life and the environmental mission that promotes recycling. Since 2010, the flowers laid at the Genocide Memorial on April 24 are gathered and their stems are removed from the petals. The stems are used to derive compost, and the petals – to make handmade recycled paper. The compost is used for the treatment of the soil in the Genocide Memorial Park, while the handmade recycled paper is used to make certificates or postcards.
