The theme of the meeting was "Advocating for problems of local population. Local budget and social programmes”.

Women were actively involved in discussion of the theme. They stressed on the work carried out by the advocacy group.

According to the members of the advocacy group one of their important achievements was that they addressed the local self government of Tskhaltubo with the proposal to make special mention of public service of elderly teachers – IDPs from Abkhazia, living in Tskhaltubo.

The local government supported their proposal and the teachers, who had been left without attention, will be provided with the financial assistance in the amount of 200 GEL. 

The project is implemented with the support of the organization NED – National Endowment for Democracy, USA.
