The UN human rights Committee will review the human rights situation in Georgia at its 130th session. The official page contains both the state report and reports of non-governmental organizations , including the CCCY report. In view of the importance to society of the information used by our organization will make regular short information about these reports.

The official report of Georgia reviewed administrative, civil and criminal cases (tbinternet.ohchr.org). The report also noted the situation with anti-discrimination legislation: "The training center of the Ministry of Justice of Georgia in 2016-2018 conducted training sessions and an information company in major cities and regions where ethnic minorities live, in particular Marneuli, Rustavi, Sagarejo, Gardabani, Bolnisi, Tetritskaro, Akhalkalaki, Akhaltsikhe, Telavi, Kvareltskali, Lagodekhi, Batumi, Poti, Zugdidi, Kutaisi, Tbilisi."

The report notes that during these training sessions, trainees were able to learn about the concept of discrimination, how to define discrimination, and how to combat discrimination. Special attention was paid to discrimination based on nationality. Supported by the United Nations development programme (UNDP) the training center received electronic versions of information booklets on discrimination in Georgian, Ossetian, Abkhazian, Armenian, Azerbaijani and Russian.

In the report, "Appendix 3" provided statistics on criminal investigations and prosecutions for hate crimes over the years. Hate crimes are assessed on several counts: sexual orientation, ethnicity, gender identity, and racial discrimination.

According to the report , in 2017 and 2018, the Prosecutor's office actively published cases of hate crimes on its page and social network in order to actively inform and raise public awareness. Appendix 4 of the state report described problems and crimes related to domestic violence.

According to that report, in 2014-2015, in conjunction with the "State Fund" protection and assistance under UN auspices, held trainings for employees of the Georgian interior Ministry (police and wardens), and in particular in the regions of Kakheti, Samegrelo, Guria, Imereti, Adjara and Shida Kartli. The trainings focused on domestic violence, applicable legislation in this area, and the procedure for redirecting victims of domestic violence.

In 2015, at the initiative of the Chief Prosecutor's office and with the support of the United Nations, the program "Promoting gender equality in Georgia", as well as the UN population Fund, organized a training course on health care for specialists on detecting cases of physical, psychological and sexual violence against women, treatment principles and further directions.

The report States that the "State Fund" actively participates in various public awareness campaigns, including broadcasting of TV and radio programs, advertising campaigns and printed booklets on this topic. One of the most important ways to raise public awareness is to organize meetings with various groups of professionals: from 2014 to 2019, about 90 informational meetings and campaigns on the topic "Victims of domestic violence" were held with the support of the state Fund.

The state report of Georgia includes statistics of criminal cases for crimes during the trial. The report says that in 2015, a new specialized Department was created to investigate crimes committed during the prosecution. The cases relate to allegations of beatings, torture, inhuman and degrading treatment, as well as forced transfer of property and other forms of coercion.
