The U.S. Embassy announces the release of the "I Know: Army and Law” online game developed in partnership with Dasaran.am.  Funded by the U.S. Embassy’s Democracy Commission Small Grants program, this online game is designed for Armenian secondary school students and all other interested citizens.  The educational game will help everyone better understand their rights under the Armenian constitution and the criminal code, and members of the military understand their rights under military legislation.  “I Know” also provides students and all citizens with comprehensive knowledge on human rights in general and on Armenian laws in particular.  U.S. Ambassador Richard Mills and RA Defense Minister Seyran Ohanyan were present at the launch of the game at Public School 56, during which it was presented to students.  “I Know: Army and Law” complements traditional and alternative education on the rights of Armenian citizens and empowers future conscripts in particular with skills to protect their rights in the army.   
 
The Democracy Commission Small Grants program is run by the U.S. Embassy in Yerevan to support local democratic initiatives in Armenia.
