The issue of relations between the local self government (Sakrebulo) and local population was raised at the meeting of the Club of Women-Voters. Some participants think that meetings of the local self government are open, since society is actively involved in addressing important issues. Some think that the staff of Sakrebulo should cooperate with the population more actively, acquaint with social programs, and attend meetings of the Club of Women-Voters.
Participants of the meeting discussed challenges of the population regarding simplification of the Law on Adoption, awarding of financial aid to mothers of large families and single mothers, decrease in fees in kindergartens.
A lawyer of Fund "Sukhumi" acquainted the attendees with the Law of Georgia on lobbying. The topic of lobbying and advocacy aroused great interest among the participants.
The project is implemented with the support of the organization NED – National Endowment for Democracy, USA.
