February 1, 2020 - May 1, 2022 112,982 EUR Slovak Foreign Policy Association, The Friedrich Ebert Stiftung – Georgia.

The overall goal of the project is to stimulate direct, transparent, and open dialogue among the
target groups, to provide them with expert information and feedback from different networks,

the common cross-political interest.

"Georgia's Neighborhood: Current Events and Processes"

On February 26, 2021, the Levan Mikeladze Foundation organized a webinar on the topic: "Georgia's Neighborhood: Current Events and Processes". Similar events are held annually and are dedicated to the memory and anniversary of the birth of Levan Mikeladze. This year the webinar was dedicated to his 64th birthday.

The webinar took place in the format of a panel discussion, in which the invited speakers reviewed the current events in neighboring countries and, in general, in the region, and their impact on the political and economic interests of Georgia. It is noteworthy that the events around Nagorno-Karabakh last autumn significantly changed the existing balance of power in the region, and a new status quo began to shape. In the emerging new conditions, new risks and opportunities arise for Georgia, which require careful analysis. Experienced invited experts who, during their long professional careers, had to directly deal with the countries of the region either as high-ranking diplomats or scientific experts, shared their interesting observations and information on all those topical issues that are necessary for an adequate assessment of the security environment in Georgia. The general consensus that emerged during the discussion is that it is necessary to continue systematic discussion and exchange of ideas in a similar or different format. The Levan Mikeladze Foundation has expressed its readiness to contribute to this process within the framework of its competence and resources.

On January 28, the Levan Mikeladze Foundation organized an online thematic meeting. The event was held within the framework of the project Planning Steps for a Peaceful Future, generously funded by the National Endowment for Democracy (NED).

Local experts and representatives of non-governmental organizations participated in the thematic meeting. During the fifth thematic meeting, Vakhtang Charaia, an invited researcher to the Levan Mikeladze Foundation, presented a policy document “The economic cost/argument for conflict transformation in Georgia.” The speaker informed the audience about the economic costs of conflicts, including the damage to business, the public sector, and internally displaced persons (IDPs).

After the presentation of the policy document, a discussion took place. Experts and representatives of non-governmental organizations discussed the arguments supporting the need for transformation.

Throughout the project five thematic discussions were held, during which internal and external factors were discussed, directly or indirectly influencing the process of transformation of the Georgian-Abkhaz and Georgian-Ossetian conflicts. These include the ongoing alienation of torn societies, the role of Russia, the importance of expanding EU participation in regional politics, economic challenges, a changed security environment, and the newly formed risks and opportunities in the light of Georgia's national interests.
