After 2008, the priority focus of Czech Development Cooperation with Georgia was addressing the impacts of the conflict with Russia as a matter of greatest urgency. Between 2008 and 2010 the Czech government allocated extraordinary volume of funding for reconstruction and development assistance in the country.

Over the past 10 years, the nature of cooperation has evolved from humanitarian assistance through post-war reconstruction to the current scheme that supports stability and successful integration of Georgia into the European Union.

The Czech Republic and Georgia bilateral development cooperation program for the 2018-2023 period is an appropriate combination of the defined development needs of Georgia. These are areas where the Czech Republic can offer technical expertise, support of communities and specific experience:

Inclusive social development - Prevention of mortality from non-communicable diseases, introduction and expansion of a social protection system for marginalized groups of population.

Agriculture and rural development - Sustainable development of mountainous regions.

Proper democratic governance of public affairs – efficient, accountable and transparent institutions at all levels of public administration.

Overall coordinator and policy maker of the Czech Development Cooperation is the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic.

Majority of bilateral projects of the Czech Development Cooperation are administrated and managed by the Czech Development Agency.

Local Small Scale Projects are administrated by the Czech Embassy in Georgia and implemented through local Czech civil society organizations and their local partners. The Embassy opens calls for proposal annually in September.

Projects of Czech multilateral cooperation are mostly administrated and managed through the Czech-UNDP Trust Fund
