Western Armenians in the Ottoman Empire before and during the Genocide.
* To develop more effective cooperation and collaboration among
organizations worldwide involved in the research of genocide,
particularly Armenian Genocide.

* To raise international awareness among the international community

* To preserve and honor the Tsisternakaberd memorial complex of
Genocide victims and the Tisernakaberd park.
The Armenian Genocide Museum & Institute (AGMI) is also a research

The main research goal of the institute is to study the Armenian
Genocide that occurred in the Ottoman Empire. The focus is based on the
scientific research of historical-documentary materials, archived
documents, photographic documentation and the accumulation of new data.
The Institute obtains materials and documents from various international
archives. The Museum also collects, catalogues and archives
eye-witnesses accounts of Genocide. The archived documents and accounts
have been translated and published by AGMI.
The Museum & Institute also seeks to include the creation of an internal
scientific institution and a school of Genocidology. It does so by
promoting a post-graduate degree at the AGMI, and participating in
scientific activities for the promotion of the unanimous international
recognition of Armenian Genocide. This includes the coordination and
establishment of the necessary academic
activities for the necessary understanding required at the external
levels, including but not limited to educational programs, involvement

Genocide
3. Department of Comparative Genocidology Studies
4. Department of Genocide of Eastern Armenian Population Studies

discussions and publishes newsletters, articles and books, both
