The European Union and the Council of Europe met with representatives from national authorities and beneficiary institutions during the Local Steering Committee of the Partnership for Good Governance.
Participants took stock of the programme results achieved in 2023. They exchanged views on existing challenges and ways to overcome them and discussed priority activities for 2024.
Four country-specific projects are implemented in Georgia, with a total budget of 3 million euros, co-funded by the EU and the Council of Europe. They build on the results of the previous phases of the programme and aim at supporting the national authorities and partners to further strengthen the independence of justice and the modernisation of court management, combating hate speech as well as enhancing the institutional and operational frameworks to prevent and combat corruption, money laundering and terrorist financing. The Partnership for Good Governance provides support to Georgia’s EU related reform agenda, in line with the Council of Europe standards.
At regional level, three projects are implemented in Eastern Partnership countries, aimed at fighting economic crime, promoting equality and non-discrimination and advancing women’s access to justice. Their purpose is to provide a platform for sharing experiences and good practices and networking.
