 This presentation introduces the Assyrian collection at the National Archive of Armenia. The collection consists of Assyrian related materials since the 19th century, which are among the scattered archives about modern Assyrian history and deserve to be preserved and digitized to promote research.

 Professor Anahit Khosroeva is a genocide scholar born in Armenia. She is a leading researcher at the Department of Armenian Genocide Studies in the Institute of History, Armenian National Academy of Sciences. Dr. Khosroeva is the author of a dozen research books and monographs, as well as numerous articles on the history of the Armenian/Assyrian/Greek genocide during the Ottoman period (1894-1923) in various languages. Her research interests include comparative genocide studies and human rights. She has presented at various worldwide academic and political conferences.

 On March 24, 2015, with the continuous efforts of Dr. Khosroeva, a month before the commemoration of the centennial of the Armenian Genocide, the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia unanimously passed a resolution recognizing the Greek and Assyrian genocide committed by the Ottoman Empire during 1915-1923. For her outstanding services, Dr. Khosroeva has received numerous awards and state medals. Today she continues to be an active voice in bringing further awareness, recognition and justice for the Armenians, Assyrians and Greeks using international human rights law.

 This lecture is part of a series on modern Assyrians sponsored by the Mishael and Lillie Naby Assyrian Lecture Fund since 1997.
