On October 17, the third theoretical training session for the online Advocacy School for public leaders in Ukraine and Sakartvelo took place.The participants of the two countries were able to come together for one goal — to promote the importance of European integration processes using innovative advocacy methods. During the event, the «Role of civil society in European integration processes»was discussed with Keti Bakhtadze, an experienced lawyer and defender of women's rights with extensive experience in non-governmental organisations.
Keti shared Sakartvelo's experience in the field of European integration and also discussed the challenges she encountered. Specific topics of the event included non-governmental organisations and their various types, their spheres of influence, and the specifics of their activities. Additionally, the discussion covered the European Union and how it differs from the Eastern Partnership. The CSO Meter, which thoroughly monitors and supports the enhancement of the operational environment for civil society organisations within Eastern Partnership countries, was also explored.
