On April 23-28, with the support of the international organization Kvinna Till Kvinna representatives of Fund "Sukhumi" and Association of Women of Abkhazia were on a working visit to Israel, where they visited local women's non-governmental organizations. Particular importance in the course of this visit was given to the exchange of experiences.

An important meeting was held in the office Kvinna Till Kvinna, where representatives of the two organizations got acquainted with basic challenges facing women in the region in terms of protection of their rights. Activities of the organizations supported by KTK in Israel are multiple, based on the fact that different women’s communities have different problems and, accordingly, strategies of their solutions are different.

The second meeting was held in the organization Itach Maki (Women Lawyers for Social Justice). Representatives of the organizations shared information about their activities. As a result we got answers to our questions about the importance of inclusion of Israeli women’s issues in the political agenda of the country, elaboration of a strategy that envisages effective cooperation with the government for the creation of gender legislation and a system for the monitoring of implementation of these laws, about the consolidation of women's movements and the selection of topics in these organizations.

It should be noted that despite the achievements, activists of women's movement believe that much more needs to be done, and they have no right to relax.

An important fact is also that the meetings gave rise to the planning of necessary activities for the mobilization of Abkhaz and Georgian women and to the future cooperation between Fund "Sukhumi" and the Association of Women of Abkhazia.
