Rights Georgia, with the support from the USAID Rule of Law Program, held three informational meetings (49 participants) on women's rights in different regions of Georgia. The meetings took place on March 1, 2024, with high school students from various schools in Chiatura, on March 6, with high school students and teachers at Nikortsminda Public School, and on March 21, with students and university professors at Telavi State University.

During the meetings, Rights Georgia lawyers talked about the rights of women, the importance of gender equality, domestic and gender-based violence, women's equal right to inheritance, and mechanisms for the protection and support for victims of violence. The conversation also included discussion of sexual harassment and the negative consequences caused by early marriages.

Participants emphasized the importance of preventing violence against women, the importance of contacting the police in cases of violence and providing qualified legal assistance. Presenters also touched upon the causes of femicide and gender stereotypes and the protection of minors who are victims of violence and their need for psycho-emotional support.

The meetings were held in the framework of the global campaign dedicated to Women's History Month.
