A joint project by the Institute of World Policy and the Center for Cultural Relations “Caucasian House”, supported by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Great Britain.The project had two objectives: first, providing support for political, social and economic reforms in Ukraine by studying the lessons of Georgian reforms; second, establishing the dialogue between Ukrainian and Russian experts.
From September 2014 to March 2015 the IWP and “Caucasian House” have organized three working visits of Ukrainian experts, government officials, civil society activists and journalists to Georgia. During the four days, Ukrainian delegation has been meeting with Georgian officials and experts and discussing the possibility of applying Georgian experience to solve the most urgent problems in Ukraine.
That part had two dimensions: a) transferring Georgian experience in the light of Georgian-Abkhazian and Georgian-South Ossetian conflicts, and normalization of relations with Russia; b) presentation of Georgia’s achievements in such areas as reforms of local governance, police, and army; anti-corruption measures; judicial reform; health care reform, and education.
