In Georgia, our primary focus is developing the healthcare sector and increasing access to and quality of care, especially in rural areas. At the same time, we focus on developing social services, particularly for people with special needs.

We also support sustainable cattle farming. In the mountainous areas of Georgia, we helping develop waste management infrastructure. We also support Georgians in composting.
