Georgia’s agricultural sector remains a significant contributor to the Georgian economy, accounting for about 6,1% of GDP and the country's total economy, however, with half of all agricultural exports destined for Russia and Ukraine, trade is expected to decline significantly under the impact of the Ukraine war in 2022. In rural Georgia, with a population of 1.5 million, one in five job-seekers is unemployed, but the unemployment rate in rural areas is slightly lower than in urban areas (18.2% vs. 22.2%). While agriculture is large in numbers, only about 6% of farms are fully commercialized, while over 80% of these farms are subsistence farms that consume at least half of their production. Government investment programmes for agriculture do not include technical assistance. Most donor projects with agricultural programs provide some necessary training to beneficiary farmers, but this does not include formal training. The main institution responsible for capacity building of farmers is the Rural Development Agency, which has over 50 extension centers in the regions, but is severely understaffed and states that it lacks qualified agricultural specialists to provide the necessary knowledge. This problem leads to a lack of number and quality of specialized agricultural programs in vocational and higher education institutions. In addition, low income makes the sector unattractive to young people, which is a further setback to the turnover of productive labour. # of smallholder farmers with increased income from agricultural production (AFS_ARI_1) % of productivity increase of farmers during project period.

According to the methodology , the population below the poverty line is those living in households whose consumption expenditure calculated per equivalent adult is less than the absolute poverty line. When calculating the share of the population below the absolute poverty line, both monetary and non-monetary consumer spending are considered. https://www.geostat.ge/ka/modules/categories/552/methodologia-sotsialuri-statistika The project will support the MEPA and RDA as operating structures, to accelerate the approximation of their institutional, legal and functional frameworks with the EU’s respective provisions. Approximation process roadmap will be developed with MEPA. Legal approximation and set up and/or consolidation of institutional and functional structures, guidelines, and procedures will be carried out. Whenever possible, alignment and harmonization with Union acquis will be the priority. The communication between MEPA/ RDA and the EU institutions will also be supported. To enable a compliance of the Action Plan of Agriculture and Rural Development Strategy of Georgia 2021-2027 to new EU CAP and IPARD policy objectives and policy measures, the project will support capacity development of MEPA in the following areas: i) EU compliant programming of new programmes & measures which are not yet part of the ARD action (e.g., diversification of non-agricultural economic activities (off farm) in rural areas. LEADER / CLLD), and redesign of existing programmes of ARDSG action plan. Integration of defined cross cutting themes will be ensured. ii) Enabling the Managing Authority (MA), MEPA to have a well-functioning of ARDSG monitoring & evaluation framework, which will serve as basis for an assessment of the impact of the current ARD strategy. To this end, the project will elaborate a comprehensive exit strategy to support the full ownership by the MPEA of the e-M&E system established in Ministry with the support from ENPARD III phase. iii) Unleashing the potential of an integrated territorial development and use the IACC as space for improved coordination and streamlining policy areas. Action Plan 2021-2023 is adopted New EU CAP and IPARD compliant measure agreed with MEPA Yes, new EU CAP and IPARD compliant measure agreed with MEPA Started an implementation of a new EU CAP and IPARD compliant measure within the ARDSG action plan for 2024-2027. In progress - the new IPARD compliant measure must be verified by the independent evaluators, however the adoption of the CLLD-LEADER State support Programme IRDG has contributed to the creation of strong institutional foundation. MEPA and RDA have been informed on the possibility to introduce additional measures on the basis of existing state programmes in the areas like Investments in physical assets of agricultural holdings and Investments in physical assets concerning processing and marketing of agricultural and fishery products. At least one EU CAP and IPARD compliant measure adopted and operational. 90% / Mostly Achieved (81%-99%) A household is a group of persons who observe the rules of living together in a single housing unit and have a common budget (its part) and comprising related and/or unrelated persons (a household may also be a one-person household).

By definition, FMPs are complex documents for the management of the State Forest Fund developed by the Forest Management Authority based on inventories of respective forest areas under certain unit, and include forest qualitative and quantitative characteristics and activity plans for sustainable management of the area for a 10-year period. Managing Authority (MA/MEPA) in the auspices of the IACC will create inter-agency working group to turning RDA into an EU compliant paying agency responsible for management of ARD funds. Existing operational procedures and guidelines to carry out the main functions of a paying agency will be updated and aligned with latest EU best practices. Required IT architecture and security systems will be further developed including the setup of an integrated administration and control system (IACS). Strategic guidance will be provided to integrate respective databases (farm register, animal identification & registration and land parcel identification systems) with IACS. Capacity building of related agencies (e.g., National Wine Agency, National Food Agency and National Agency for Sustainable Land Management and Land Use Monitoring, National Agency of Public Registry under Ministry of Justice) will be supported with respect to their contribution to the effective functioning of the paying agency. Options for the delegation of tasks of the paying agency to regional branches or regional / local governments will be developed as part of the decentralization of the implementation of the ARD policy. Clear rules and procedures including trainings for staff of delegated institutions will be elaborated. With the project’s support, the process of turning RDA into an EU-compliant paying agency responsible for the management of ARD funds will be further continued. Strategic guidance (including the IACS roadmap) will be provided to integrate respective databases (farm register, animal identification & registration and land parcel identification systems) with IACS. Capacity building of related agencies (e.g., National Wine Agency, National Food Agency and National Agency for Sustainable Land Management and Land Use Monitoring, National Agency of Public Registry under the Ministry of Justice) will be supported concerning their contribution to the effective functioning of the paying agency. The project will support development of a staffing training plan for RDA and the MA, including a training needs assessment and annual training plan. Training plan on the alignment with EU requirements is not existing. MEPA staff training needs initial plan drafted and agreed. The Staff Training Plan for MEPA/RDA staff in charge of ARD Policy drafted and agreed. MEPA staff training plan developed. Staff training plan was developed jointly with the Human Resource Management Department and implementation started. The training Plan was complemented with the Study Tour to Croatia and Serbia involving MEPA and the agencies under the Ministry. Formal trainings and on-the-job capacity building are provided to MEPA and RDA staff regarding their functional operation of EU compliant RD procedures. Development of standard operating procedures for the appropriate functioning of the Managing Authority (MEPA) as well as the RDA will be done in a tandem approach to foster understanding and ownership of staff. No specific targeted formal trainings / on the job trainings. 30% average knowledge increase of respective MEPA/RDA staff in IPARD/EU-compliant RD policy framework 30% average knowledge increase of respective MEPA/RDA staff in IPARD/EU-compliant RD policy framework. Training of respective IACC and Civic Committee/RD policy stakeholders in IPARD/EU-compliant RD policy framework was organized and delivered. Planned more interventions in 2024 to measure progress. 30% average knowledge increase of respective MEPA/RDA staff in IPARD/EU-compliant RD policy framework In progress - The project provided capacity development activities to RDA respective staff and CSO representatives. Achievement status to be finalized when IRDG collects ex-post knowledge evaluation responses. In addition, IRDG plans to significantly increase knowledge access and coverage by launching the online rural development course, which was presented to the IACC/Civic Committee meeting on October 8, 2024. Formal trainings and on the job trainings of MEPA are delivered. Achieved in 2024. With the project’s support MEPA and RDA prepare the technical specification for purchasing an Application Programmes Management System (APMS) for the selected types of interventions under the National Strategic Plan for Agriculture and Rural Development of Georgia. Conduct overall functionality analysis of the current e-administration and application management systems of the Rural Development Agency, including officially approved quality and information security protocols. Build the necessary procedures to ensure that every change in the agriculture policy, particularly any changes, are recorded in databases through automatic checklists updated in good time. Build awareness of MEPA and RDA on APMS/the application processing module that should provide means of creating and registering applications for different types of national programme claims, including future IPARD programmes. Provide examples from EU member states and/or candidate countries on operations and maintenance of Application Programmes Management Systems (APMS). Project will provide support to MEPA and RDA to design the operational framework of the LEADER/CLLD approach, covering basic financing of LAGs, local development strategies (LDS) development, information campaigns, and implementation of local development strategies. This way LAGs will build up their own capabilities, which will strengthen the LAGs in their role as lobbying/ and recognised representative structures of the local communities. This in turn will increase the credibility and outreach of the LDS designed locally with a bottom-up approach. To achieve this level of recognition, LAGs need to be consolidated by complying with minimum criteria regarding their organizational structure and composition as well as their capacities to interact with other LAGs and stakeholders, their representativeness and in general their increasing capacity to operate on their own. In line with this objective, the project will support the development of LAGs’ internal monitoring system for self-assessment of progress of LDS development status. Project will facilitate coordinated actions between MEPA and MRDI to ensure complementarity of the National LEADER/CLLD programme with the ongoing Village Support Programme of the MRDI. Project will also support the complementarity of the National LEADER/CLLD programme and other LEADER/CLLD initiatives of the ENPARD IV implementing partners.

Project will also support the complementarity of the National LEADER/CLLD programme and other LEADER/CLLD initiatives of the ENPARD IV implementing partners. The project will facilitate integrated rural infrastructure development in the focal regions through mapping of the development strategies and action plans across national-level strategies (e.g., Agriculture and Rural Development Strategy, Regional Development Strategy, and funds: e.g., regional development fund, capital development grants), regional/municipal development plans (incl. regional development strategies, existing local development strategies (LDS) among others) and financial instruments. Synergies with ongoing complementary initiatives, implemented by development partners, such as World Banks’ Log-in project and EU’s ITD program), will systematically be considered and promoted. To ensure overall coherence of infrastructure investments, location-based comprehensive mapping of the enabling infrastructure development will be prepared, also providing descriptions and contact details of all development partners and local stakeholders (local authorities, LAGs and vulnerable groups representatives). The action will also facilitate increased engagement of local government authorities from the focal regions in the infrastructure development planning (be it on project identification, financing instruments, program design, resource allocation etc.) through existing and future inter-municipal working groups on infrastructure development. As of today, the Houses of Justice provide up to 470 different services, while the Community Centres will provide up to 250 services. Unlike the Houses of Justice, the services of such agencies as: National Bureau of Enforcement, services of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (e.g., certificate of conviction, certificate of border crossing) are not available in the existing 88 Community Centres. Project will support capacity building of Community Center personnel (in the focal regions) for rendering additional services and may also provide certain equipment needed to provide new services (readers, signature pads, etc.). Project will also facilitate selection of the experienced staff from the Community Centres in the focal regions, who receive coaching guidance and coach/train new staff members, as well as periodically conduct trainings/informational meetings for rural youth, women, and other vulnerable groups on the topics such as ‘how to register as an entrepreneur’ or ‘how apply for the citizenship’. Many of the Community Centres operate where mainly ethnic minorities (Azerbaijanis, Armenians) live and they have a challenge with knowledge of the Georgian language. Project will facilitate the creation of several groups (of ethnic minority citizens) to whom to provide courses at the community centres (art, reading, film show, discussion evenings are possible new activities for these Georgian language groups). Project will also facilitate organizing training/informational sessions on the topics that are on high demand in rural communities (e.g., how to apply for business grants) at the Community Centres. Some other topics will also include e.g., violence prevention, women empowerment, children rights, etc. Project will also arrange visits of schoolchildren to Community Centres, where they will receive information about Community centres' role, public services, the importance of administrative documents to claim their rights and play their citizen’s role in the future, and other useful information. As of today, the Houses of Justice provide up to 470 different services, while the Community Centres will provide up to 250 services. Unlike the Houses of Justice, the services of such agencies as: National Bureau of Enforcement, services of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (e.g., certificate of conviction, certificate of border crossing) are not available in the existing 88 Community Centres.

Real estate operations will be facilitated for persons with disabilities/illiterate through the use of a new functionality designed for illiterate, blind (fully and partially) persons. To accommodate this specific process/procedure, the project will provide special capacity building courses for the Community Centre's staff in the focal regions and may also provide certain equipment needed. The action also intends to provide support to rural vulnerable in the focal regions by facilitating the provision of certain, equipment for Community Centres. Gender aspects will be foreseen in multisectoral rural development-related policies and programmes to create an enabling environment for women to pursue economic empowerment opportunities. Awareness raising on gender aspects among government bodies, incl. the Civic Committee of IACC will be organized, including establishing a specific working group to promote concrete policy actions targeted to gender equality in rural areas. Rural women will be specifically encouraged to participate in decision-making and local development processes by joining LAGs in focal regions. Rural women will be encouraged and supported to join entrepreneurial initiatives and networks of rural women to become economically active in non-agricultural sectors. To help realize the project ideas, business coaching, including the identification of financing sources, will be organized. As access to finance is a critical issue for any grass root initiative to materialize, specific financing modules for projects for rural women will be made available. Specific educational and vocational training opportunities are created to empower rural women to become economically independent to enhance their capabilities and employability in the Labour market. To stimulate non-agricultural activities, training, experience-sharing visits, and seminars will be organised to foster entrepreneurship among rural women. Through informational sessions, rural women and girls will be encouraged to consider an education in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields to overcome the currently prevailing gender pay gap. The opportunities derived from increased digitalisation of rural areas will be promoted to enable rural women to engage in new forms of economic activities (e.g., teleworking). To support the country´s forest reforms, it is expected the sector will generate substantial new opportunities for employment. It further emphasises the opportunities to offer formal employment to local people currently informally employed in fuelwood harvesting. At present, undergraduate, and graduate training programs lack specialized modules that would provide training in forest administration, forest law and law enforcement, forest economics, etc. The project will continue supporting the “Forest Engineers programme” and explore possibilities to institutionalise the training module further and ensure the sustainable continuation of the programme. Renewable Energy Communities (RES communities) are a growing and extraordinarily multifaceted phenomenon which involves a range of possible activities around renewable energy (notably, production, supply, distribution, sharing and consumption) collectively carried out by citizens, often in partnership with small and medium enterprises and local public authorities. The project will support establishment of Renewable Energy Communities in one of the target regions (preferably in a mountainous area) and ensure the capacity development of RES community members through trainings on skills development, advisory services on technology application/improvement, maintenance of production and delivery systems. The project will support RES community to initiate and implement EE/RE initiatives. The Project will support local manufacturers or technology suppliers with skills development, advisory services on technology application/improvement of production and delivery systems, provision of information on applicable standards and requirements. The project will also support development of business plans for EE/RE suppliers to support their loan applications via RDA partner banks, as well as to access investment support instruments offered by RDA.

To accelerate the transformation towards more inclusive models based on the LNOB principle, the Project supported increased resilience and participation of PwDs in decision-making, benefiting over 100,000 of them with increased access to Government programs and the ability to participate in policymaking through consultative platforms. A manual for disability-inclusive budgeting at the local level was developed. The Project supported PwDs to participate in various government platforms, including consultative councils and committees under the Government and Ministries. The Project contributed to the capacity building of national governmental institutions to implement the national regulations and policies aimed at improving the human rights situation of vulnerable groups. The target audience was employees of law enforcement agencies (Ministry of Internal Affairs, Prosecutors Office), Revenue Service of the Ministry of Finance, National Forensic Bureau, and social workers. In total, over 700 government employees have a better capacity to address human rights grievances and prevent violations of human rights. Improved regulatory framework on human rights issues is another result of the 2022 activities; the Project supported the development and approval by the Government of the National Human Rights Strategy. Furthermore, with the Projects support, the following documents were elaborate on and approved: • Guideline for social workers on Assessing the needs of people with psychosocial needs • recommendations for social workers on communication with persons with psychosocial needs • The Strategy of the Public Defenders Office on monitoring the human rights situation of persons with disabilities. The Project created a space for discussion between the representative of Tbilisi Pride and the Ministry of Internal Affairs aimed at the peaceful and safe conduct of the Tbilisi Pride 2022 events in Tbilisi.

Inception Phase indicator: Availability of full-fledged proposals under UNPRPD’s 4th Funding Round Call for Proposals (Yes/No) Inception Phase baseline: No DELIVER AN INDUCTION WORKSHOP CONDUCT A SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS DEVELOP THE FULL PROPOSAL 30 representatives of Ministries, Human Rights Secretariat, Public Defender’s Office, OPDs, and UN agencies were trained on seven different directions of rights of PwDs: equality and non discrimination, accessibility, support services, data collection, accountability and coordination, budgeting, rights for women and girls with disabilities. Comprehensive situational analysis commissioned by seven national experts created solid fact and data-based information on the situation regarding PwDs in seven directions indicated above. Full project proposal was developed and approved by UNPRPD Secretariat Facilitate mainstreaming PwDs rights in the programming and implementation of UNDP projects. Support capacity building of OPDs operating in the regions. Facilitate SDG-inclusive monitoring of the nationalised SDG plans. Develop a draft law on Web-Accessibility, as the Georgian legislation does not provide guidance on this topic. Create a manual for civil servants on the Meaningful Participation of PWDs in the Decision-Making process. The project team conducted training for UNDP staff members on mainstreaming PwDs rights in the programming and implementation of UNDP projects. The training covered the principles of the Convention on the rights of persons with disabilities (CRPD), inclusive SDGs, basic communication rules with PwDs, etc. The Project supported the capacity building of OPDs in regions through targeted trainings. In total, 27 persons (out of which 19 participants were PwDs) were trained concerning disability-inclusive planning, implementation and monitoring of SDGs. Draft Guidelines on Meaningful Participation of PwDs in the Decision-Making Process were prepared with the OPDs, PwDs, the Parliament of Georgia, the Public Defenders Office and other state agencies. The Project supported the first meeting of the SDG Council Secretariat with 26 representatives of OPDs and PwDs. An agreement was reached to continue work with the PwDs community to improve the system and increase the participation of OPD/PwDs in the SDG thematic working groups. A draft law on Web-Accessibility was developed in close cooperation with the Parliament of Georgia. It is crucial to ensure access to information for PwDs in line with the CRPD. After the creation of the CRPD implementation and coordination mechanism, its newly nominated members and participating institutions will need capacity building to secure a unified understanding of the CRPD and how to translate it into practical implementation. Therefore, the program will focus on strengthening the knowledge of the committee members and member authorities on the participation and web accessibility standards and guidelines.

The internal resources will be utilized to conduct the training and other capacity building activities for UNCTs. This will improve and increase the local capacity to implement disability inclusive SDGs at the country level as well as it will support the CRPD implementation process at the country level. UN staff members need additional information and knowledge on CRPD and SDGs. 40 staff members 44 staff members Georgia does not have participation standards for OPDs in the decision making and policy making processes. Hence, it is difficult to ensure the involvement of all interested organizations in decision-making processes and determine whether the views of OPDs are prioritized. A formal framework of participation endorsed by the government and parliament and recognized by the OPDs and CSOs working on the rights of PWDs will be essential. The Public Defender of Georgia indicates the inadequate involvement of OPDs and organizations working on their rights in the process of preparing strategic documents on accessibility and decision-making. Georgian PWDs and OPDs outlined the problem of insufficient involvement in 2020 when they highlighted the lack of effective participation of PWDs in drafting the Law of Georgia on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Participation of OPDs in decision-making processes is low in Georgia and remains a consistent challenge, therefore this output will enhance participation that is facilitated through both formal and informal mechanisms, ensuring that monitoring and accountability are cornerstones of participation. Furthermore, the OPDs and other main stakeholders will be involved in the elaboration process of the participation standards and guidelines. The OPDs must be recognized for their participation in the process. They remain pivotal to gaining a nuanced understanding of the rights of PWDs within the national context and can provide unique insights and expertise. The standards will be tested by the administration of the Government of Georgia. Policy makers and decision- makers will be trained under the newly elaborated participation standards.

Georgia does not have web accessibility standards and needs the introduction of a Digital Transformation Strategy according to international best practices and globally accepted standards on web Content Accessibility. UNDP supported the elaboration of the Guideline on Web Accessibility for People with Disabilities in Georgia. The document describes recommendations on how to carry out the national ICT accessibility standards elaboration process based on the CRPD, other international standards, and best practices. Currently, there is a need to create a legal and policy framework on web accessibility. The programme will work closely with the Parliament and Government to support the development of legislation on web accessibility. Georgia does not have legislation on web accessibility Georgia has new web accessibility legislation in compliance with globally accepted standards.

The Voluntary National Review on the implementation of SDGs, recognizes the need to fully include PWDs as the integral element for “leaving no one behind” principle under SDG’s. While the review mentions the needs of PWDs, it fails to provide detailed information on what has been done to ensure PWDs' inclusion in the SDG implementation plan at the national level. The review also does not provide information on the disability indicators. Georgian OPDs expressed concern that they are not actively involved in the work of the Council for Sustainable Development Goals. Public authorities lack formal mechanisms to engage PWDs regularly in the planning, implementation, and monitoring of SDGs. Therefore, there is a need to involve OPDs in the planning, implementation, and monitoring of SDGs through the SDG council. Only 2 OPDs are involved in the thematic groups of SDGs Council SDG council has undertaken a consultation process As a result of the consultation process with the Administration of the Government of Georgia, three OPDs applied to join the SDGs Council thematic working groups. One OPD became a member. Hence, the governmental coordination mechanism ensured the involvement of PwDs in the planning, implementation and monitoring of SDGs. # of trainings 1) developed and delivered in the UNPRPD programme. # of participants participating in capacity building activities funded or provided by UNPRPD programmes # and % of participants reporting increased knowledge or capacity to design or revise policies or systems to be more disability inclusive. # of OPDs that benefitted from capacity building activities funded by UNPRPD programmes to strengthen the capacity of organizations of persons with disabilities. # of capacity-building activities funded by UNPRPD programmes, directed at women and girls with disabilities on their rights and requirements and/or directed at underrepresented groups of persons with disabilities on their rights and requirements. # of knowledge products developed, piloted, and disseminated to the relevant stakeholders to inform inclusive practices # of knowledge products developed that address gaps related to inclusion of women and girls with disabilities and/or underrepresented groups of persons with disabilities # actors involved in developing and testing of knowledge products # of stakeholders reporting increased or strengthened policies and systems as a result of UNPRPD funded KM tools # of national regulatory frameworks and systems changes targeted by the UNPRPD program disaggregated by 1) legislation/regulation, 2) policies/plans/strategies, 3) capacity building programs, 4) operational guidance/standards, 5) direct services/service overhaul/service modelling, 6) audits/reviews/assessments, 7) governmental programs, 8) administrative procedures, 9) formal monitoring and accountability mechanisms or bodies, 10) regulatory/oversite/monitoring systems, 11) financing and budgeting or 12) other # type of change (development/review/reform) in legal frameworks and systems # of national regulatory frameworks and systems changes targeted by the UNPRPD program disaggregated by 1) legislation/regulation, 2) policies/plans/strategies, 3) capacity building programs, 4) operational guidance/standards, 5) direct services/service overhaul/service modelling, 6) audits/reviews/assessments, 7) governmental programs, 8) administrative procedures, 9) formal monitoring and accountability mechanisms or bodies, 10) regulatory/oversite/monitoring systems, 11) financing and budgeting or 12) other # type of change (development/review/reform) in legal frameworks and systems # of multi-stakeholder coordination mechanisms to support legislative policy and systems changes developed or strengthened # of stakeholders within each mechanism. # stakeholders involved in consultation and validation processes (disaggregation by stakeholder XM-DAC-41114-PROJECT-00135260 United Nations Development Programme Joint EU-UN Programme for Rural Development in Abkhazia, Phase III (ENPARD IV Abkhazia Component) Overall objective: contribute to improved quality of life and socio-economic conditions of the rural population in Abkhazia.

The Khobi and Poti municipalities have strong interlinked dynamics, making them a strategic focus for the GFP interventions. Research conducted during the inception period has validated the connections between Khobi and Poti across various intervention areas, with clear ties to the wider region, and particularly with the Zugdidi municipality. About 7,000 Khobi residents commute daily to Poti and Zugdidi for work, business, or education, while Khobi serves as an agricultural supply base for these cities. The municipalities, located along the Black Sea shore and within the same river basins, are naturally linked in addressing common environmental and climate issues. Additionally, the regional landfill system connects all nine municipalities, with waste management centralized at the Zugdidi regional landfill. Building on these connections, and after close consultations with the Greening the Future Project Team, the Ministry of Regional Development and Infrastructure (MRDI) in Georgia has agreed to include the Poti and Khobi municipalities in the new the new Integrated Territorial Development Program (ITDP), alongside Zugdidi. Supported by an additional 50 million EUR from the EU, the new ITDP will fund area-based solutions and policy documents after government approval – enabling this way scalability and a wider reaching impact for the GFP. MRDI has introduced ITDPs with the Regional Development Programming in 2018-2021, shifting from infrastructure-focused model of local-level development to integrated territorial actions aligned with EU standards. After the pilot program's success in four regions, MRDI is expanding these principles to other areas. Consequently, the project will develop joint area-based development document for Poti and Khobi municipalities to explore Poti functional urban area, uncover functional linkages with neighboring municipalities, opportunities, common challenges and area-based solutions outcoming from the existing funcitional linkages between these municipalities. The research will suggest area-based solutions to promote green and just transition in the defined functional area, which will be incorporated in the project interventions. The document development process will leverage UNDP's prior work via the DGG Project, which introduced and institutionalized participatory methodologies for municipal development planning and created Municipal Development Documents (MDDs) for Poti and Khobi municipalities, among others. Consequently, the MDDs, local economic development plan, SDG localization plans and other strategic local development documents of Poti and Khobi municipalities will serve as a foundation for the project activities, aimed inter alia at addressing underprivileged areas and communities. Workshops and consultations with local communities, the private sector, and national and local actors will align governance strategies with these priorities, enhancing social cohesion and stability. Knowledge products, policy, and technical support from IRH under sub-output 3.1 will be analyzed and applied in creating the area-based development document. The project will support local institutions to establish and administer continued data collection and monitoring tools to track the effectiveness and accountability of local governance improvements. However, for the bigger impact the project will concentrate on the data related to green transition, such as data for development and monitoring SECAPs, waste management plans, urban mobility plans and similar data in project related activities. For better understanding and addressing gender disparities, inequalities, and barriers in green sectors, the project will support gender-responsive data collection and monitoring tools. The same approach will be used to ensure data collection and monitoring for understanding and addressing the social aspects of green transition on disadvantaged groups, including IDPs, PwD, the elderly and other socially vulnerable communities, to equip the municipalities with data and knowledge to ensure not only green, but also a just transition. In cooperation with MRDI, Geostat, the project will identify relevant data set, elaborate methodology and digital tools as necessary for data collection and will support municipalitiesy and Geostat with capacity building and technical assistance, including with support of IRH for use of bigdata and AI data monitoring tools (activity 3.2.2) Focus on green transition will be applied in relation to citizen feedback mechanisms. The project will assist targeted local governments in introducing citizen feedback tools and integrating public input into planning of and service enhancement related to green transitions, such as creating digital and mobile applications for citizen feedback, application of AI tools for analysis of citizen feedback and conducting citizen satisfaction surveys with green-transition related policies and services. The project will partner with IRH to design, apply, and implement in Georgia of relevant tools and solutions developed by IRH under 3.2. sub-output. The project will offer technical assistance to local institutions, with a two-fold focus: a) updating and implementing municipal programs in response to area-based priorities, and b) promoting partnerships with the local private sector to advance green transition. Targeted municipal authorities will receive support in designing, integrating, and executing local programs addressing green and just transition, human rights, gender equality, youth empowerment, energy efficiency, ecological challenges and potential, and other relevant priorities within their competencies. . Within the scope of the decentralization reform and with the support of the DGG project, municipalities' access to grants from international organizations was simplified, allowing them to initiate and manage local development initiatives through donor support. Therefore, the project will provide funding for implementing selected municipal initiatives based on the above programs to address major challenges and unlock local development prospects, with a focus on climate, energy, adequate preservation of unique nature and sustainable realization of ecological potential. Additionally, the project will facilitate partnership-building between local governments and private sector actors exploring the potential for Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) and encouraging the sharing of knowledge, best practices, and technology. The project will support the development of investment portfolios and projects to support the green transition based on the portfolio approach successfully implemented by the M4EG in Georgian municipalities. For achieving sustainable and inclusive development outcomes, the project will specifically target policies and investments, supporting gender empowerment and inclusion in green transition, based on the research on gender gaps and opportunities for promoting women inclusion. The project will assist local authorities in enhancing local development planning capabilities fostering green and just transition and other relevant priorities.. Municipal authorities will receive technical support in designing, integrating, and executing local programs, including elaboration and mid-term reviews of SECAPs, area-based development, eco-tourism development, including unlocking potential of Kolkheti National Park related tourism and local economic development, sustainable and eco smart urban development and transformation, climate adaptation, disaster prevention and emergency response, and other municipal green and just transition related policy documents and action plans. The project will support targeted capacity-building for local government officials on environmental governance, climate action planning, and sustainable development strategies. This includes incorporating green transition issues and behavioral changes in budgeting, introduction of green budgeting, procurement, infrastructure and urban planning, municipal services, municipality-to-business relations, social services, community engagement, policy-development and improving public communication on green and just transition, including counterfeiting disinformation and misperceptions. In addition to strengthening local planning capabilities, based on the lessons learned through the DGG project, GFP will support the target municipalities in donor relations capacity-building. This will be achieved through technical assistance and capacity building for accessing funding sources and grants specifically earmarked for green initiatives. It will also include development of grant applications to obtain direct grants from MRDI and other ministries, donors, EU funds and improve capacity of the target municipalities to manage grants on a learning by doing basis. Cooperation between the target municipalities will be supported, including through mentoring and peer-to-peer learning applied by the DGG project. The project will facilitate the exchange of knowledge and good practices among municipalities, sharing successful initiatives and services and enabling municipalities to replicate good practices. Cooperation with other Georgian municipalities advanced in green transition through peer-to-peer learning and support of implementation of pilot initiatives will be provided. Among others, this effort will include support NALAG, which is implementing an annual Best Practices Program effectively promoted through the DGG project's support in previous years, with the aim to introduce and develop green and just transition related Best Practices Awards, support and incentivize municipalities to increase quality and scale of green projects, strengthen NALAG capacities to promote best practices and knowledge exchange between municipalities in climate and energy related issues. With IRH support, the project will support collaboration of the target municipalities with their regional, Danish, and other EU member states counterparts for enhanced learning and implementation of successful solutions in Georgian municipalities. The project will support participation of municipalities in the regional knowledge-share platforms and events, study tours. With IRH support, the project will explore opportunities and provide technical support to municipalities for mobilizing additional funds through partnerships with EU-member states municipalities (e.g., Constanta (Romania), Varna (Bulgaria) - sister cities of Poti), other state and donors’ funding opportunities to support sustainability of changes. The project will provide funding to the municipalities for implementing selected municipal initiatives to support introduction of the explored best practices and solutions, as well as effective implementation of the projects with the additionally mobilized funds. The technical assistance, capacity building and cooperation enhancement components to advance green and just economic transformations and local governance in Georgia, use of digital tools and technologies in public governance, improvement of communication on the benefits of green and just transition, as well as project impact, will be backed by IRH support under activities of sub-outputs 3.1. and 3.2. UNDP will engage with the central government to local and regional development actors to enhance coordination and cooperation, stimulating green transition and green growth. The project will ensure multi-level coordination that will foster green and just transition on local level that is sustainable beyond the life of the project. UNDP will assist the central and local governments towards continued policy dialogue, support development of national and regional strategic documents with a focus on climate and energy, green and just transition, increased roles and resources of municipalities in deciding affairs of local importance, by conducting relevant studies, providing expert support, and organizing discussions between central and local authorities. This will also help to ensure that area-based and municipalities needs and priorities are aligned with and reflected in national priorities. To ensure the mainstreaming of the green, just, and digital transition agenda in regional development policy, priorities and activities of other municipalities and other donors' engagements, the project will support MRDI in establishing and operationalizing the Donor Coordination Platform on Regional Development, similar to the donor coordination platform coordinated by MRDI in the decentralization area with UNDP office support (formerly under DGG and currently under EU4ITD projects). The project will support the mapping of the relevant donors, funding donor coordination meetings and elaboration of the data-base tools, which will serve as an information sharing platform for governments and donors in the engagements in the The project will work and support NALAG in strengthening its capacities to promote dialogue on climate and energy issues between national and subnational governance. Support will be provided to strengthen capacities of the Coordination Council comprised of the municipalities - signatories of the Covenant of Mayor and acting as subnational level consultative body under National Climate Council. The project will focus on the services aligned with the green transition, such as services that have to be provided by the municipalities based on the energy efficiency legislation, NECP, waste management law and other national regulations in climate and energy efficiency areas; waste management services, including waste separation, transportation services, design and management of municipal green areas, disaster prevention and emergency response, other municipal services with the aim to foster inclusive green and just transition and climate adaptation. Selected municipal services in both municipalities will be reviewed from inclusive green transition lenses to identify the need for re-design or introducing additional services. Service manuals and performance management system (PMS) frameworks like the one developed for the waste management and street cleaning services with the support of the DGG project, will be developed and supported by trainings to improve service delivery. The project will ensure that support in the re-design and introduction of all green transition and climate related services’ is aimed at improvement of the living and service standards of women, youth, PwDs, elderly, and IDPs through for example introducing subsidized energy audits and energy efficiency improvements for disadvantaged groups, including IDPs, elderly, PwD being the affected by energy poverty Selected municipal services in both municipalities will be reviewed from inclusive green transition lenses to identify the need for re-design or introducing additional services. Service manuals and performance management system (PMS) frameworks like the one developed for the waste management and street cleaning services with the support of the DGG project, will be developed and supported by trainings to improve service delivery. The project will ensure that support in the re-design and introduction of all green transition and climate related services’ is aimed at improvement of the living and service standards of women, youth, PwDs, elderly, and IDPs through for example introducing subsidized energy audits and energy efficiency improvements for disadvantaged groups, including IDPs, elderly, PwD being the affected by energy poverty. The re/design process will be proceeded by idea-generation activities to identify the best solutions. Local community representation in these activities will be ensured to reflect the needs and specificities of each service/program. The project will provide funding for the implementation of the best solutions and contribute to the improvement of selected service provision. The project support will also focus on raising the effectiveness of existings services, including waste management services in target areas, including waste separation that has high potential of co-funding from MRDI, KWF, GIZ and other donors. Municipalities will be supported in operationalizing the waste management plans, implementing effective waste management strategies, and promoting proper waste disposal methods, waste separation and recycling initiatives. This area of activity Similar approach will be utilized in relation to other existing services, like public transportation, building permits and other To create an enabling environment for re/designing municipal services, the project will address capacity gaps related to planning, designing, delivering, and evaluating municipal services. A series of tailored training sessions and on-the-job mentorship support will be extended to municipal staff members. This intervention will place significant emphasis on raising awareness among participants and enhancing their competencies in delivering people-centered services, as well as ensuring that key services are delivered in a rights-based and inclusive manner. This includes a focus on introduction of participatory mechanisms at all stages of service delivery (design, implementation, and assessment), developing quality assurance mechanisms, and introducing digitalization when possible (considering the access to digital tools and digital literacy of potential beneficiaries). In its capacity development activities, the project will utilize the learning and managerial tools already developed by UNDP including public service development guidebooks prepared and PMS for waste management and street cleaning, and other learning materials. To support service delivery in remote and disadvantaged areas of Khobi municipality, the project will support e-service delivery through the enhancement of service delivery by offices of Mayors' representatives in Khobi municipality administrative units. The offices of Mayors’ representatives can provide support to local communities to access municipal services digitally through the unified e-services platform, which provides opportunity to citizens to address local authorities and access services remotely. Public uptake of the platform remains low as for a citizen to be able to use all available services, along with personal computer connected to internet, one should have electronic ID, pin code, digital signature, and ID card reader. Considering the lack of access to these devices and lack of digital literacy among most vulnerable population, the mayors’ offices in administrative units can serve as a connecting point providing necessary support to citizens to access the basic services remotely without traveling to the administrative center. With the objective to increase the access to e-services offered by the offices of Mayors' representatives the project will supply essential technical equipment to their offices and provide training and consultancy to Mayor’s representatives to fully utilize opportunities created via unified e-services platform. In addition to advancing Mayor’s representatives capacities, to address the root causes of the problem such as lack of digital literacy of the population or lack of digital readers both in Khobi and Poti municipalities, the project will support local activists and community groups, women, girls, youth in rural communities and in IDP settlements to educate and empower them with the knowledge and digital readers to assist their neighbors in using available e-services, participation in decision making and increased accountability of the municipalities. Such activities will be also in the focus of CSOs under sub-output 1.3. The project will also support digitalization of other existing municipal services, development of web and mobile applications in both municipalities, digitalization of public transportation in Poti municipality and other. . In this regard the project will also partner with Georgia Innovation and Technology Agency (GITA), Municipal Service Development Agency (MSDA) and Service Development Agency (SDA). IRH support and knowledge base on digital and AI solutions in e-solutions will be actively utilized. The project will strengthen the capacities of the local Civil Society Organizations (CSOs)/ Community-based Organizations (CBOs), business associations, producers responsibility organizations working in Khobi and Poti municipalities through trainings and workshops in the most needed areas to increase knowledge and skills that will contribute to meaningful participation in policy dialogue, advocacy, project design, and management, including resource mobilization (e.g., advocacy, project design, storytelling, social accountability, identification of community needs, citizen engagement mechanisms, resource mobilization, etc.), dual transition and local development. CSOs working in the targeted areas/municipalities will be also offered an opportunity to engage in various forms of collaboration, and form alliances and partnerships to amplify their impact. These collaborations aim to enhance their advocacy efforts and allow for resource sharing. The project will focus on and mainstream green transition issues in the CSOs and in general citizen engagement. For example, strengthening of CSOs capacities will include awareness-raising on just, green, and digital transition, mentorship programs, and technical assistance to empower local organizations in advocating for and implementing green initiatives, as well as to function as drivers of green transition in the local communities and private sector. Green awards, development of digital participatory and monitoring tools and other mechanisms will be applied to increase motivation of CSOs and communities they serve to participate in the green transition. The project will provide need based technical assistance to CSOs, business associations, producers responsibility organizations in monitoring and evaluating the impact of their initiatives on green transition outcomes, develop monitoring frameworks, data collection tools, and evaluation methodologies to assess project effectiveness and inform evidence-based decision-making. Small grants for research, independent data collection, review and monitoring of municipal policies and activities, citizen satisfaction reviews and similar activities will be financed to promote CSOs engagement and learning by doing. IRH Regional knowledge-sharing platform on green transition, Danish participatory practices, courses like Just and Green Transition developed by UNDP Urban Learning Center, other UNDP resources, will be applied where possible. IRH digital, AI related components, including for countering disinformation in green transition will be addressed. Like in municipalities, knowledge sharing and CSOs capacity-building to mobilize funding for green transition related initiatives will be supported. The project will empower CSOs, business association, producers responsibility organizations with small grants to support community-led projects that promote green and just transition, climate and energy agenda, green growth and social accountability. It will, facilitate participatory planning processes and consultations with communities through CSOs, engage local residents, including women, youth, IDPs, and marginalized groups, private sector in decision-making and implementation processes related to municipal planning, environmental policies, climate adaptation, green infrastructure development, green and just transition, green growth and social accountability. Additionally, the project will support advocacy, awareness raising and behavioral changes campaigns to educate the public and private sector about green transition goals, environmental rights, and the benefits of sustainable practices. To increase motivation of both governmental and non-governmental actors to work together and leverage grants provided to CSOs, the project will also provide support and funding to the municipalities for strengthening citizen engagement activities from the municipalities side, such as support design, implementing and co-funding participatory budgeting programs, youth programs and activities, functioning of municipalities existing participatory platforms (mayors advisory, youth, gender, PwD councils), Youth Center established by Poti municipality, and support of their programs and activities, organizing meetings, focus groups, surveys, creating visibility and learning materials, support in public communicating of the policy development, dual transition and implementation of area-based and green transition related plans, as well as public awareness campaigns supporting green and just transition, behavioral changes in local communities and private sector. The project will partner with the municipalities to channel support schemes, innovation challenges and other target programs aimed at increased engagement of local community groups represented by mayors advisory, youth, gender, PwD councils. The project will also support municipalities in adhering to energy efficiency, renewable energy, waste management legislation and NECP requirements. For instance, municipalities must develop energy consumption passports for all municipal buildings, ensure energy efficiency measures in 1% of municipal properties (increasing to 3), and issue building permits for all buildings up to 50m² based on an energy efficiency audit by a certified auditor, in line with new EU building regulations. The project will bolster enhance these activities by raising awareness, building the capacity of relevant municipal staff, and developing energy management systems, energy efficiency consulting services, and support municipalities in promoting energy efficiency measures, increased use of solar energy systems in municipal operations, local communities and private sector. Further, the project will assist municipalities and local stakeholders in implementing approved Waste Management Plans, including waste separation, and provide technical assistance for planning waste management operations, particularly waste separation, construction waste management, billing database development, waste-related data collection, and public awareness initiatives. New waste management concepts like waste reuse (including green waste), prevention, reduction and efficient management of food waste, packaging waste will also be supported, along with facilitating dialogue and supporting private sector in implementation of extended producers responsibilities in cooperation with the producers’ responsibility organizations for prevention, reduction, sustainable management and recycling of private sector waste, promoting reuse and recycling of separated waste, including single-use plastics— a prevalent issue in both municipalities along their river basins and Black Sea shoreline. Coupled with MRDI and other donor engagements, the project assistance in waste management will enhance project impact and promote the sustainable use of green practices, fostering systemic cooperation between the target municipalities. The project will also support municipalities in development of public transportation. Poti will benefit from support in developing a parking concept, a smart traffic light system and other actions to manage heavy transit cargo traffic from the port through the city, the digitalization of public transport, and other measures aimed for improved public transportation system. Khobi municipality, lacking its own public transportation, will require support for a needs analysis, considering daily commuting within adjacent rural communities and between Zugdidi and Poti municipalities. A parking concept for Khobi will also be supported, as well as development of sustainable urban transport plans for the municipalities. Like waste management, while the project will not fund the purchase of public transportation, it will provide technical support to enable municipalities to implement necessary actions to develop public transport systems, digitalization, optimization, greening and improvement of existing public transport operations with their own, state, and donor funds. The project will educate municipal staff on green infrastructure investments, such as green roofs, urban parks, and sustainable drainage systems, and support the development of sustainable urban planning practices, green space policies, standards for efficient energy and water use, plants selection, application of nature-based solutions, and the adaptation of green spaces for women, children, PwD, and the elderly. Additionally, there is a need to develop new green and blue corridors for climate adaptation and support both municipalities in planning and implementation of climate adaptation, disaster prevention and emergency response policies and measures. Beyond raising awareness and promoting energy efficiency, the project will back municipal activities aimed at implementing green transition measures. This includes providing energy audits for selected municipal buildings, designing and co-funding infrastructure upgrades to meet established targets. These efforts will enable municipalities to pursue infrastructure upgrades using their own funds, state resources, or contributions from other donors. The scope of energy efficiency audits and technical assistance will encompass not only municipal buildings, but also schools, kindergartens, sports and cultural infrastructure, street/façade and park lighting, irrigation systems, and other municipal responsibilities. Given that non-municipal and residential buildings are the largest energy consumers, the project will extend support for energy efficiency audits of residential buildings in IDPs and eco-migrants compact settlements, residential buildings selected by municipalities for infrastructure upgrades. Energy efficiency upgrades may also include the use of solar energy. In addition to energy efficiency infrastructure upgrades, the project will support development of energy efficiency audit reports, technical recommendations, or design documentation to assist municipalities in mobilizing financing from sources such as MRDI-led ITDP and other state or donor programs.

Khobi municipality, lacking its own public transportation, will require support for a needs analysis, considering daily commuting within adjacent rural communities and between Zugdidi and Poti municipalities. A parking concept for Khobi will also be supported, as well as development of sustainable urban transport plans for the municipalities. Like waste management, while the project will not fund the purchase of public transportation, it will provide technical support to enable municipalities to implement necessary actions to develop public transport systems, digitalization, optimization, greening and improvement of existing public transport operations with their own, state, and donor funds. The project will educate municipal staff on green infrastructure investments, such as green roofs, urban parks, and sustainable drainage systems, and support the development of sustainable urban planning practices, green space policies, standards for efficient energy and water use, plants selection, application of nature-based solutions, and the adaptation of green spaces for women, children, PwD, and the elderly. Additionally, there is a need to develop new green and blue corridors for climate adaptation and support both municipalities in planning and implementation of climate adaptation, disaster prevention and emergency response policies and measures. As previously mentioned, the UNESCO-protected Kolkheti National Park spans both municipalities. Despite both municipalities prioritizing tourism in their MDDs, neither currently benefits significantly from tourist activities. Leveraging the region's cultural and natural heritage, the project will aid municipalities in planning and developing eco-tourism initiatives for sustainable tourism while preserving biodiversity and cultural identity. Both municipalities will receive support for developing relevant branding, conducting feasibility studies, and conceptualizing access and a visitor center for the National Park in Khobi municipality, in collaboration with the State Protected Areas Agency and Tourism Administration. The project will cooperate with APM Terminals Poti Port, being part of Maersk Transport and Logistics, to share and apply Danish private sector experience in waste management and efficient energy management with municipalities and private sector stakeholders, and support uptake of sustainable practices by the local stakeholders. The development of area-based analyses of neighbouring municipalities, described in action 1.1.1, along with the development of Khobi municipality's SECAP and the monitoring and review of Poti's SECAP, will provide additional information essential for designing project interventions for the green and just transition. Beyond raising awareness and promoting energy efficiency, the project will back municipal activities aimed at implementing green transition measures The project will bolster enhance these activities by raising awareness, building the capacity of relevant municipal staff, and developing energy management systems, energy efficiency consulting services, and support municipalities in promoting energy efficiency measures, increased use of solar energy systems in municipal operations, local communities and private sector. The report “Penetration of EE and RE Technologies in Georgian SMEs” and an online survey of local businesses conducted during the inception period identify a lack of awareness, knowledge, and skilled personnel as major barriers to energy efficiency and green transition. A relevant labour market and skills development mapping report, will be prepared to assess the need to address these skill deficiencies to promote green transition, particularly energy efficiency. Number of existing VET courses incorporating green transition related skills Energy efficiency legislation now requires municipalities, state property owners, and large businesses to implement energy efficiency audits conducted by certified energy auditors. Starting from December 2023, energy efficiency audits will be mandatory for issuing building permits. However, the list of certified energy auditors published by MoESD on its website includes only eighteen auditors, insufficient to meet the demand defined by the law. The legislation also mandates energy efficiency labeling for all buildings, including the provision of an energy efficiency passport when renting or selling residential apartments. The law specifies the following regulated qualifications: a) Energy audit implementers in the industry sector; b) Energy auditors implementing energy efficiency certification of buildings; c) Energy managers and installers of elements affecting energy consumption by buildings; d) Independent experts performing inspections of heating and air conditioning systems in buildings; e) Persons performing energy audits in the buildings sector. Similar requirements are outlined by other laws concerning photovoltaic (solar panels) service personnel and environmental managers. Although national standards for relevant professional education qualifications have been established, educational programs are not yet developed. The project will support public Vocational Education College "Phazisi" and Zugdidi University, to develop professional education training and retraining programs, which will serve as a replicable model for other areas in the country, introduce relevant professional education and skills development programs in these educational institutions aligned with market needs and support delivery of skills development programs. The project will partner with Energy Efficiency Center in development, introduction, implementation and certfification of energy efficiency related qualificiations, including in providing support to Phazisi College and Zugdidi University. . . The project will collaborate with Sector Skills Organizations and private sector associations, to enhance and stimulate demand for green jobs from the private sector. This collaboration will build links between professional colleges and the private sector to increase the employability of reskilled and upskilled personnel. Facilitating internships to bridge the gap between education and employment and advocating for the hiring of certified professionals are also key components. Participants will receive career counseling and job placement support to secure employment in energy efficiency-related jobs after completing their training. The project will also provide specialized training and upskilling opportunities to job-seekers and existing employees of private and public institutions, equipping them with the knowledge and skills required for energy efficiency, renewable energy, waste management, eco-tourism, sustainable agriculture and other green jobs. Training courses will be based on skills gap assessments and incorporate hands-on, practical training components whenever possible, enabling employees to apply their learning directly to their work tasks. Additionally, the project will provide training to local companies’ owners to promote and implement energy efficiency, sustainable green practices principles within their organizations, with a comprehensive coaching curriculum led by subject matter experts and industry leaders. This strategic approach ensures that the knowledge and skills acquired through the training directly contribute to improved job performance and, consequently, to the overall efficiency and sustainability of the institutions involved. Energy efficiency and green transition-related courses and upskilling opportunities will be offered to vulnerable groups (rural youth, women, IDPs, and PwDs), equipping them with the skills and knowledge required for existing and new green jobs. Since energy auditors can work as individual entrepreneurs and MoESD publishes the list of certified auditors, they will have good prospects of generating income without being employed by private businesses . Therefore, the project will support certification processes, assisting candidates, particularly IDPs, women, and youth, in accessing training, preparing for certification exams, and understanding the legal and regulatory requirements for practicing as energy auditors or related professionals. Addressing gender-based barriers, the project will explore opportunities for women's inclusion in green transition jobs through targeted training, mentorship, and networking initiatives. Support will be provided to women entrepreneurs and innovators to access green job sectors, leverage their skills, and overcome knowledge gaps to thrive in green economy roles. The project will partner with other projects focused on women’s economic empowerment.
