Aribus: A mobile classroom for children in Armenia’s villages

Lilit Movsisyan is young but she has ambitious ideas. She is trying to renovate an old bus and transform it into a mobile classroom.

The “Aribus”, as she calls it, will head towards various rural communities in Armenia and invite children to discover a new type of education.

As a mobile classroom, the initiative aims to bring innovative education to the village children.

The project is still at its early stages. The bus has been procured, but now the organizers need financial assistance to renovate it. The design of the bus and the educational content has been thoroughly thought out, down to the last details.
