It has been a year since the village of Debet in the Lori region passed from “toward the good” to “toward SMART”. The village, buried in the green from head to toe, has a modern Municipality building, street lighting, a bus stop, a library, and soon a beauty salon, boulangerie, a modern school, a kindergarten, and other businesses and infrastructure.

The residents of the only SMART village in Armenia continue their rural work: digging land, cultivating a garden, making socks, and weaving.

No guest has yet managed to “escape” from the hospitality of 80-year-old grandmother Sveta.
