The present report was prepared by the Coalition for Equality and other local NGOs specialising in various aspects of women’s rights, gender mainstreaming and social work.

The report was prepared by the authors on the basis of their studies, research, practice, case law analyses, advocacy and lobbying at the policy level, as well as on the basis of other authoritative sources. The authors also incorporated information acquired through interviews with directly affected individuals.

The purpose of this report is to inform the Group of Experts on Action against Violence against Women and Domestic Violence (GREVIO), prior to their evaluation visit in Georgia, of the current situation of women in Georgia and of the implementation of the Council of Europe Convention on Preventing and Combating Violence against Women and Domestic Violence (also known as the ‘Istanbul Convention’), as well as to provide corresponding recommendations to address the remaining challenges.
