Georgia's progress on human rights in 2014-2020
The independepent assessment prepared by the international human rights expert Maggie Nicholson covers all major areas of Georgia’s National Human Rights Strategy for 2014-2020. The report was commissioned under the EU-funded Human Rights for All programme, which was implemented in 2016-2019 by four UN agencies – UNDP, OHCHR, UNICEF and ILO.
How to accelerate progress towards the SDGs?
93 percent of SDG targets are reflected in Georgia's national strategies. To accelerate progress towards the SDGs, the country ifdentified four priority areas that are currently “bottlenecks” for development: reducing disparities between rural and urban areas; creating employment opportunities for youth; overcoming gender gaps and other inequalities; and developing green energy.
Climate Action
152 lives were lost in natural disasters in Georgia over the past two decades and economic losses totalled more than USD 1.2 billion. Scientists estimate that climate-driven disasters could cost Georgia as much as USD 12 billion over the next ten years. To counter the growing threats, Georgia is creating a national model of climate resilience to provide direct protection to more than 1.7 million people, or almost half the population.
