MISS EARTH ARMENIA
PAOLIN AHANGARI

DESCRIBE YOUR CHILDHOOD/GROWING YEARS
I would highlight those years of my life as the woman I am today is thanks to that days as they were calm; however, I was a child that was absorbing and learning every single detail happening around and taking notes from them so they transformed me to this day’s Miss Earth Armenia.

WHAT IS YOUR MEMORABLE MOMENT?
My most memorable memory is when the director of my school called me and my family asking if they would let her make me skip one year and graduate a year earlier as she highlighted my intelligence, that was very memorable as I saw the pride in my mother’s eyes.

ANY SPECIAL STORIES OR FACTS ABOUT YOUR FAMILY?
My family appreciates learning languages more than anything, they believe one day when you’re in your lowest if you know languages you’re gonna be saved, that’s the reason I’m learning my 5th language right now and already thinking about the 6th one.

WHAT IS THE MOST UNUSUAL THING YOU HAVE EVER DONE?
Growing up I used to look at myself in the mirror every night saying “I wonder if there’s any girl existing in this world that is uglier than me”; however, with the help of my mom day by day I started working on myself both physically and mentally to this day that I look at the mirror saying “Look how worthy you are” and I believe that might be one of the hardest and the most unusual things I’ve ever done and I’m more than proud of it.

WHAT TIPS CAN YOU SHARE TO PROMOTE ECOTOURISM & CLIMATE CHANGE?
As tourists come to Armenia to spend time in its nature first of all I would suggest my government to put more budget for signs of “Do Not Litter” for our natural tourist friendly mountains and rivers and also to have more control and force over building our new hotels sustainable and green.

WHAT MAKES YOU PROUD OF YOUR COUNTRY?
I am proud of a lot of things about it but what stands out is the survival gene. Coming from a genocide survival country I never give up until I get what I want, that’s what I’m really proud of, “The Armenian Resilience”.

WHAT IS YOUR ADVOCACY?
My higher education is in “sustainability and architecture”. And the sad truth is 78% of the pollution that we have today is due to “Architecture”; however, this pollution doesn’t come from the construction phase and it’s totally evitable just by designing the buildings by respecting the 17 sustainable development goals! Although Europe is respecting these SDG’s being from an Asian country.

I want to bring them to our Asian countries and base our new architecture on them.
