Elena Manukyan also participated in a research workshop, during which two doctoral students from Hasselt University presented reports and presented the identification and modeling of the factors affecting the crime. Our colleague had a report on "Trade Balance in Armenia and Modeling the Real Exchange Rates", which was of great interest to the doctoral-researchers and they made a suggestion of cooperation.
