- It is necessary to conduct serious reforms in the system of education. If we want to have non-violent society, it is necessary to lay the foundation today.
- The powers of the police should be more expanded.
- It is necessary to confront the violence against women, but there is still a problem of coordination. The state should create a united strategy, which will define the functions and role of different structures.
Such recommendations were announced at the public debate organized by the Fund "Sukhumi" in Poti. The meeting was attended by representatives of local governments, NGOs, police, heads of social department and health department of the City Hall, teachers, journalists, women activists.
The debate was held in frames of the campaign of 16 active days with the aim of developing recommendations for preventive mechanisms of violence.
