The lawyer of the fund “sukhumi” met the IDPs, residing in the hotel “Kolkhida” in Menji – Senaki Municipality.

The aim of the meeting was to familiarize with the IDP problems and the ways of their solution. The IDPs are worried mainly by the problem of anti-sanitary and resettlement. They do not know what will happen and when they will be allocated accommodation…It was decided to study the issue and write statement to the appropriate Ministry, in order to receive exact information.

There was also another issue – law on domestic violence and prevention mechanisms from the side of the state.

The project is implemented with the support

 of the UN Women’s Fund for Gender Equality

Pupils of the public school No7 of Senaki once again discussed the issue of violence while debates. According to them, the facts of violation must activate each citizen, though they underline that our society is not used to activities and independence of the women. It causes problems among “modern woman” and “traditional man”, which leads to violence. The pupils mentioned that we must not forget social background, as in most families, it is a reason of the conflicts.

The participants expressed readiness to be involved in the campaign of 16 active days, which means number of activities against violence towards the women.
