Project Description
Georgia has been in transition politically, socially, and economically since the collapse of the Soviet Union. Though Georgia is a country with tremendous opportunities, currently schools struggle to equip students with necessary skills in English due to lack of resources, technology, authentic practice, non-formal education opportunities and other factors. This is particularly evident in rural and underserved communities. Georgia’s declared development efforts recognize English language skills as a key tool to attaining personal, educational and professional opportunities for citizens of Georgia. Investing in youth is more important for Georgia than ever considering its declining youth population.
