Goals
The main objective of the National Integration and Tolerance in Georgia (NITG) program is to promote an increased sense of national unity among the citizens of Georgia by supporting the Government of Georgia in formulating a national integration strategy and action plan. The program also strives to empower people and organizations to effectively discuss, debate, and resolve a range of issues related to building a cohesive multi-ethnic nation. The NITG program is implemented by the United Nations Association of Georgia with funding from the United States Agency for International Development. EPF is responsible for the grant component of the program, which focuses on NGOs working to develop areas of Georgia populated by citizens of non-Georgian descent.
Impact
Since the program was started in January 2007, EPF has funded five organizations (through one targeted grant competition and the open door mechanism) to support national integration and tolerance building. Projects focus on the following areas: tolerance in media, intercultural awareness, and participation of ethnic minorities in local decision among process. Projects are currently underway.
EPF will announce another request for proposals in February 2009.
