The Women Fund "Sukhumi" has been actively holding meetings in the municipalities in a round table format for years, with the involvement of referral entities provided by the Law on Violence, in order to facilitate the introduction of a coordination system between agencies at the local level.

The meetings highlighted the need to establish an interagency commission on the local level. Active work has started in the target municipalities to implement this initiative. Three working meetings were held with the representatives of Bagdati, Senaki and Chokhatauri municipalities. The meetings were attended by the Deputy Mayors, the heads of the legal, youth, social and health departments of the City Hall, the coordinators of the children's department, the persons responsible for gender.

Gogi Revia, a member of Zugdidi Interagency Commission, was invited to listen to best practices. Participants received comprehensive information on the establishment, importance and work of the commission.

It was noted that this commission will be a mechanism to improve coordination at the local level on the issues of domestic violence and will facilitate the work of local entities.

The project is implemented with the support of the organization Brot
