UN Women: Notes Progress in Georgia in terms of women's empowerment and urges on greater achievements

UN Women observes progress in many areas, including expanding women’s leadership roles and enhancing women’s economic empowerment. For many women, poverty and violence are every day facts of life as they fight to acquire equal rights with men – in employment, family, property, as well as access to public services and security, says UN Women's program director for the sub-regional office for Eastern Europe and Central Asia, Damira Sartbaeva.
