Civil Society Representatives’ Blog 7 | The Cost of Activism in Georgia Today: The Everyday Struggle of Women Activists

“What will they come up with today?” - this is how the morning begins for many Georgian women activists. This is no longer just fear of a specific attack or insult; it is the constant expectation that a new form of pressure may emerge at any moment. The political environment that has taken shape in Georgia in recent years has placed women human rights defenders and activists in a particularly vulnerable position.

Civil Society Representatives’ Blog 6 | Cases of Pressure Against Women Human Rights Defenders in Georgia

This blog is based on the 2025 study “Challenges of Women Human Rights Defenders and Activists in Georgia” and reviews various forms of pressure exerted on women human rights defenders from February 2023 (following the initiation of the “Draft Law on Registration of Foreign Agents”) through September 2025. The study shows that, in addition to the weakening of organizations and their exclusion from civic space, the political situation in the country has forced women human rights defenders to confront intense individual-level pressure.

Civil Society Representatives’ Blog 5 | A Study of Women Consumers’ Rights and Awareness in the Imereti Region

In democratic states, the protection of consumer rights is one of the key social and legal priorities. Relevant European Union directives emphasize the importance of institutional guarantees for consumer information, education, and protection. Safeguarding consumer interests, ensuring fair competition in the market, and raising citizens’ legal awareness are essential components that guarantee the consumption of safe and high-quality products. In Georgia, a survey was conducted among 220 women consumers in the Imereti region to examine women’s awareness as consumers. This blog presents the main findings of that survey.

Civil Society Representatives’ Blog 3 | The Lack of a Support Network as a Barrier to Escaping Violence for Women with Disabilities

Protection from violence and access to justice are fundamental rights for persons with disabilities. These rights are prerequisites for the realization of other rights: security, a dignified life, and the ability to make independent choices. However, in Georgia, escaping violence remains a difficult and often nearly impossible task for women with disabilities. This is caused not only by individual circumstances, but also by entrenched social stereotypes and ineffective state responses.

Civil Society Representatives’ Blog 2 | Cultural and Religious Norms and Khulo Women’s Access to Healthcare Services

A study conducted in the summer of 2025 shows that women living in Khulo face a number of barriers to accessing healthcare services. The main challenges are related to the fact that some women hesitate to talk to doctors about various symptoms due to feelings of shame and associated stigmas. Women are also afraid of going to hospitals and undergoing medical examinations. This is especially true for women who have not received medical services for a long time. In addition, a lack of time due to household responsibilities further limits access. Respondents involved in the study did not identify specific religious barriers that prevent them from visiting doctors, but they did point to economic obstacles. Moreover, Khulo women name traditional folk medicine as an alternative to visiting a doctor.

Civil Society Representatives’ Blog 1 | Women’s Invisible Labor in the Context of Husbands’ Migration: The Experiences of Avar Women

Labor migration of men, both globally and in Georgia, is often discussed in terms of its economic benefits. However, the social cost that women pay in this process is far less visible. Especially in ethnically diverse and rural communities, women’s labor under conditions of husbands’ migration often remains invisible. This blog describes how the lives of ethnic Avar women change as a result of their husbands’ migration.
