In March, 8 round tables of psychologist’s meetings with the women and 2 individual meetings, regarding a problem – how to be protected from the rapist were conducted in Kutaisi. 75 women from age of 19 to 58 attended. Three group meetings and consultations were conducted in WSCs of Senaki, Kutaisi and Khurcha-village of Zugdidi region. 34 women from 28 to 60 attended.

Topic of the discussion: - who makes the climate in family, a man or a woman? What is the way of making pledge of happiness?

The answer is known, woman makes the mood and using it the man works with pleasure  for the family, but not always it happens so as we talk. The women as usual are more emotional than the men, more susceptible to hormonal surges. We must be aware of these features.

Ability to listen and hear the partner, ability of empathy and yield, just love –is a pledge of happiness.

Nowadays Facebook is one of the most popular nets for personal relationship and for advertising of own products or activities, also for attracting mates.

The youth net of the Fund “Sukhumi” created personal “Facebook like” page, which very soon became popular, especially among the youth. The page daily increases the number of users.

Every day we make the analysis of the mentioned page, announce to the users interests, which give us opportunity to have permanent contact with the people, who are interested in our activities. March was devoted to the work on women’s rights, their role in our country. In all six youth centers of the Fund “Sukhumi” different activities were held and the information was placed on Facebook page. These publications were led by discussions and comments.

By the opinion of majority of the boys, women’s rights are not abolished, as all of them have opportunity to know their right and protect it. The girls have opposite argument and they answer using examples and their own experience. 

Next actual topic was: “Youth projects in regions, which are not financed.” The young people mentioned that local government can finance various youth projects, but they do not envisage their demands and needs.

These and not only these topics are actual for the youth and Facebook page of the Fund “Sukhumi” is one of the most favorite “places” for expressing opinions.

Especially interesting is portraits of GAC members, their approach towars council activities and acknowledgment of own share.
