The meeting gathered the member agencies of SCMI, international, local non-governmental organizations and other stakeholders. The participants presented brief information about the already accomplished activities, discussed the planned new initiatives and answered respective questions.

Meanwhile, in order to ensure the effective coordination of the awareness raising campaigns envisaged by the Action Plan (2016-2017) of Georgia’s Migration Strategy for 2016-2020 as well as visa liberalization action plan, the coordination meeting also aimed at sharing information on the relevant activities planned in the field of migration. The representative of the EU delegation underlined the significance of launching efficient and targeted information campaigns as part of the EU-financed projects as well as raising the visibility of the initiatives supported by EU in Georgia.
