Who we are:

We are a group of women- internally displaced people (IDPs) who come together to establish a women’s non-governmental organisation in Kutaisi, Western Georgia in October, 1997. Our group was created after the Georgian population had to flee Abkhazia as a result of the armed conflict in 1992-1993.

Our organisational mission:

Development of women’s activity through educational, legal, economic, social, cultural activities to increase women’s role in building a democratic society in Georgia, in the peaceful resolution of the conflict in Abkhazia, and achieving economic independence

Operation of the application has finished. The online Vote-O-Meter “worked” on the Internet for almost a month after the planned date. Parliamentary elections were held on October 31, and the second round of elections - on November 21 - that was exactly the reason. The project team was active in dissemination of information.

As a result, 68 760 people filled in the application. This is a quite serious indicator, considering that the application was presented to voters for the first time.

The project is implemented with the support  of the Visegrad Fund
