“Implementation of a large-scale construction and rehabilitation project of kindergartens and schools on the initiative of the Prime Minister of Georgia is particularly important with our non-Georgian speaking citizens in densely populated regions, where, within the framework of civil equality and integration policy, together with the Ministry of Education, we are implementing a bilingual education system.”

In the newly built kindergarten in the village of Kumurdo, where we are and officially opened today, bilingual preschool education will begin in September and children will have the opportunity from a young age to master the state Georgian language, which is one of the strategic priorities of our policy. ‘

At the same time, as part of our visit to the region, we opened a large-scale information campaign in Akhalkalaki on the initiative of the Minister of State’s Office, during which for 3 weeks representatives of relevant state agencies will directly inform representatives of 90 villages of the region with detailed information and explanations in relevant spheres of interest to them, like the high-quality, customer-oriented opportunities that the state has opened for them,” said Minister of State Tea Akhvlediani.
