TBILISI – On October 1, 2013, at 10.30 representatives from the U.S. Agency
for International Development (USAID) will attend the Stakeholders’
Coordination Panel Meeting at the Sheraton Hotel in Tbilisi to discuss
environmental protection, climate change and agriculture in Georgia.



The stakeholders’ coordination panel, which is comprised of international
and non-governmental organizations, governmental bodies and representatives
of local authorties, was created by the USAID program “Institutionalization
of Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation in Georgian Regions” implemented
by the National Association of Local Authorities of Georgia. The
Coordination Panel will discuss the problems and projects concerning climate
change, environment protection and agriculture in municipalities.



The Institutionalization of Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation in
Georgian Regions program integrates environmental and climate change
considerations into the agendas of local authorities in Georgia. The program
will establish special commissions on climate change, the environment and
sustainable agriculture within local government administrations in Georgia
to ensure the effective implementation of a broad range of statutory
functions related to natural resources management, land use and sustainable
development.



The U.S. Government supports climate change adaptation and mitigation
measures in Georgia as an important part of its efforts to promote the
effective management and protection of Georgia’s natural resources and the
economic well-being of all Georgians
