Research question: “How does age impact the assessment of climate change risk in
Yerevan, Armenia ?”
This work’s aim is to investigate overall climate change awareness among different age
groups in my hometown Yerevan. Additionally, this study aims to understand the age group with
the lowest climate change risk assessment in order to develop solutions to raise overall climate
change awareness in the country. The reason why I chose this topic and this specific issue is
because when comparing my home country Armenia to other upper middle-income countries I

countries. This contrast sparked my interest in putting a start for an investigation that would
answer the question of the climate change risk assessment is different amongst different age
groups.
