Bagdati, Koki, Samtredia – Promotion of Violence Prevention

- There are women around us who live with these problems. Information should reach every family and every woman should feel that she is not alone in case of violence – this is the opinion of meeting participants. They will spread the received information in different communities and thus help to prevent the cases of domestic violence.

Monthly information meetings in Bagdati, Koki (Zugdidi Municipality), Samtredia, were attended by representatives of various communities. According to the mobilizers of the Women Support Centers, the society still needs information on issues of violence in order to properly assess the results.

The meetings promoted to identify cases of violence. The number of people, who need help, was increased. The psychologist and the lawyer of the Women Fund “Sukhumi” started working on specific cases identified in Koki and Bagdati.

The project is implemented with the support of the organization Brot
