Promotion of Civic and Legal Education

At the event, the invited teachers were addressed by David Usupashvili, Chairperson of the Parliament of Georgia, Lia Gigauri, Deputy Minister of Education and Science, and representatives of the implementing organization.

The main goal of the project is to promote the development of professional skills of civic education teachers and to provide them with legal education through intensive training. Within the framework of the project, a kind of professional development platform has been created, and practical law lessons will be implemented in selected schools.

As a result of the implementation of the project, a systemic long-term training program for civic education teachers will be established in Georgia, which will significantly contribute to raising the qualifications of teachers of this discipline, thereby improving the quality of teaching civic education in schools.

GYLA's Education Promotion Foundation has been actively working since 2005 with school teachers, students, and university students to provide comprehensive legal and civic education.

The partners of the Foundation in the implementation of the project are the National Center for Teacher Professional Development of the Ministry of Education and Science of Georgia and Ivane Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University. The project is funded by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ).
