Eurasia Partnership Foundation has completed an open competition entitled “New content through new technologies” as part of its “Alternative Resources in Media” program, which is jointly being implemented by the “Internews Network” (USA), Eurasia Partnership Foundation, the Yerevan Press Club and the “Internews Media Support” NGO. The program is made possible by the generous support of the American people through the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).
