The web page

 |
A web page dedicated to disseminating
information about our organization, along with our research and advocacy
activities.
|
 |
A web page dedicated to the
Georgian
Administrative Code Monitoring Project, an initiative of PSI's Center for the
Study of Free Markets, Competition, and Private Enterprise, which aims to
build a coalition of Georgian NGOs to advocate for the implementation of this
important law.
|

Georgia, created along with PSI, by the Caucasus Institute for Peace,
Democracy and Development, a leading Georgian NGO, and Chavchavadze
University, Georgia's premier higher education institution. |
 |
A web page dedicated to the Journal of Georgian
Politics, a PSI initiative which aims to electronically publish Georgian
public policy research. We hope to publish the first issue before the end of
2001. |
Along with these four resources, our research staff is in the process of
developing an extensive World Wide Web Virtual Library about Georgia dubbed
"Rustaveli," after Georgia's most prominent poet and philosopher. We envision
that Rustaveli will become an online resource for scholars and policy-makers
interested in Georgia's political, economic, and social development, its
history, along with regional security and geopolitical issues in the Caucasus.
We intend to have the initial version of Rustaveli running by the end of the
summer; please stay tuned.
PSI is dedicated to maintaining an active presence on the World Wide Web. We
welcome your feedback and suggestions. Please feel free to email us at
