"Almost 240 private houses and 8 new kindergartens will be built on land plots owned by internally displaced people (IDP) and their families" stated Mamuka Bakhtadze, Prime Minister of Georgia at a regular press-briefing held prior to the Executive Government Meeting today.
Grant financing program, which aims to implement very important projects in support of IDPs, has been jointly developed through a German-Georgian cooperation.
Grant financing allocated in the volume of 10 million Euros by the Federal Republic of Germany will also be used to rehabilitate 2 pre-school buildings in Georgia. Almost 250 grants will be issued to empower the IDPs and equip them with means of generating sources of income. Other social activities will also be funded.
Prime Minister of Georgia expressed his gratitude to the German authorities for allocating the grant financing.
"I believe that this program is a very important objective to extend our activities in the coming years on the grounds of lessons learned from this initiative. I am confident that it will be completed successfully and accumulated knowledge will serve as a basis for assigning one of the leading priorities to similar projects in the annual budget of 2020" concluded the Prime Minister of Georgia.
