The project “Strengthening of medical staff for the protection of violence victims” is carried out only in Kutaisi. In frames of the project, the publication “The role of medical staff in violence prevention” was prepared. The publication caused a great interest among the project participants, so they decided to distribute it to all regions where the Fund "Sukhumi" works. In January and February, the brochure was distributed to medical staff at healthcare institutions of nine municipalities in Western Georgia (Kutaisi, Tskaltubo, Khoni, Terjola, Senaki, Poti, Zugdidi, Lanchkhuti, Ozurgeti).
The purpose of the publication is to help medical professionals respond properly in cases of violence.
The project is implemented with the support of the British Embassy Tbilisi
