Georgia
Georgia became a WHO Member State on 16 May 1992, and a liaison office was opened in Tbilisi the following year. In 2005 the liaison office became the WHO Country Office, Georgia. The Country Office plays a crucial role in administration, consolidation, management and enhancement of WHO collaboration in the country. The Country Office’s main priorities are set out in the biennial collaborative agreement (BCA) between WHO/Europe and Georgia. It implements the BCA in close collaboration with the Ministry of Health, national institutions and international partner agencies.
