“Memory of Iravan: Traces of Azerbaijan in the Ancient Homeland”

The main purpose of the project is to highlight the historical and cultural heritage of Western Azerbaijan, Turkmen-origin toponyms and hydronyms, ethnic composition of the population up to the 20th century, including real historical facts such as deportations and forced migrations against Western Azerbaijanis from the mid-20th century, to both local and foreign audiences.

The project is implemented with financial support from the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Azerbaijan by the Support Association for Education in History. Within the project framework, a web platform named iravanculture.com has been created, documentary video materials have been prepared, educational meetings with youth have been held in Baku, Quba, and Lenkoran. The project primarily serves the education of the local and partially foreign contingent. A special group of project volunteers has been created to ensure the sustainability of this project!
