We were aimed at increasing the relationship with the partner university and the interrelation with Georgian civil society, public and private actors. To that end thanks to the presence of academics in both Italy and Georgia, a series of initiatives (publications, courses, seminars, conferences, exchange of experiences, etc.) have been launched and further consolidated. We also wanted to develop a student exchange programme between the two universities that would be beneficial to both sides, given the different courses offered by the two universities. Italian students would be able to attend lectures on subjects not included in the curriculum of the Department of Political Science, and vice versa for Georgian students.
