The topic of the issue is “Participation of Civil Society in Georgia’s Climate Policy”. Firstly, Giorgi Mukhigulishvili provides an overview of the current national climate policy as described in the Nationally Determined Contribution document (national climate goals formulated to achieve the targets of the Paris Agreement). Secondly, based on the requirement that participation of civil society is required within the development of such documents, Larissa Donges and Mikheil Kurdadze examine how participation rights are being implemented in practice. Thirdly, Anna Samwel and Ana Muradashvili add a different perspective to this issue, namely the question of why gender matters in climate policies.
