COUNTRY DIRECTOR’S MESSAGE

UNDERLYING CAUSES OF POVERTY IN GEORGIA/SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS AND CARE’S
RESPONSE

SHIDA KARTLI

This region, most severely affected by the 2008 war, is now home to 9,800
IDPs. Both the newly displaced people from South Ossetia and the 100,000
returnees following short-term displacement are in need of assistance to
recover their livelihoods. CARE has provided extensive humanitarian support
from the fi rst days of the war and in 2009 started working on income
generation and IDP integration with over 5780 beneficiary households.

RACHA-LECHKHUMI AND KVEMO SVANETI

With a harsh climate and limited arable land, this is the most sparsely
populated and poorest region in Georgia. CARE fi ghts poverty by using the
innovative Markets-for-

the-Poor approach in Racha, and developing capacities of community-based
organisations to provide services and advocate for the poor in Lechkhumi and
Kvemo Svaneti.

KVEMO KARTLI

Since 2003 CARE has worked in this ethnically diverse border region of
Georgia, which is home to a large number of ethnic Azeris, to improve
farming practices, support

start-up small businesses and rehabilitate rural infrastructure. Value
chains are developed by setting up joint ventures in partnership with
private companies and support to rural associations.

SAMTSKHE-JAVAKHETI

A region with signifi cant ethnic Armenian population bordering Armenia and
Turkey, Samtskhe-Javakheti has been in the focus of CARE’s work since 1997.
Ongoing

projects aim at the development of value chains through the establishment of
small and medium enterprises in partnership with private companies and
support to

farmers and rural associations.

REGIONAL PROJECTS

Responding to common needs and challenges, CARE works at a cross-border and
regional level to support the development of civil society and the reduction
of poverty. In partnership with local organizations, CARE strives to
increase the role of women in peacebuilding and support dialogue across
existing division lines in the South Caucasus.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
