Georgia: Impacts of the hostile political and legislative environment - report
In 2023 and 2024, the Government of Georgia initiated several legislative regulations that have raised numerous concerns within society. To this day, no comprehensive justification has been presented regarding the necessity of these changes. Moreover, there has been an insufficient assessment of the potential harm these changes could cause to fundamental human rights, including the right to health. In response, IPPF's Georgian Member, Association HERA XXI, conducted a study in 2024 aimed at assessing the needs and attitudes of women, young people (aged 14–29), and local civil society organizations in the context of the new political and legislative environment. Specifically, the study focused on the following legislative changes: Order No. 75/N of the Minister of Internally Displaced Persons from the Occupied Territories, Labour, Health and Social Affairs of Georgia, on “Approval of the Procedure for Performing Induced Abortions”, the “Foreign Influence Transparency Act” (commonly referred to as the “Russian Law”) and the “Law of Georgia on the Protection of Family Values and Minors” (commonly referred to as the “Anti-LGBT Law”). These laws not only alter the legal framework but also have a significant impact on people’s everyday lives and fundamental rights. Therefore, the aim of the study is not only to assess the existing level of knowledge or attitudes, but also to identify the direct and indirect effects these laws have on the target groups — including in terms of health, education, social inclusion, and access to services.
