The Ministry of Education, Science, Culture, and Sports of Armenia has proposed a new funding tool for the cinema sector, aiming to implement it starting in 2026 as a complementary support mechanism to existing competitive grants.
Minister Zhanna Andreasyan explained during a press conference that the model is based on the endowment concept, which was originally envisioned during the drafting of the Law on Cinematography. The fund’s framework has already been developed and discussed with industry professionals, according to Armenpress.
