"I decided to become a role model myself." Anna Hakobyan told the first ladies about her journey to education.

Anna Hakobyan told the First Ladies about her journey to education in Armenia. She shared on social media her speech at the official welcoming session of the First Ladies Global Annual Academy in New York.

"Last year, I started a movement in my country called 'Education is Fashionable.' That means that my focus is now on education. Recently, I decided not to just appeal to people to get involved in education or talk about the importance of education, but to become an example myself.

That is why I am here with great anticipation, to learn from my colleagues, the first ladies, their experience, as well as from the experts we will be happy to listen to during these three days."
