Georgia’s mountains define the Caucasus country and offer a spectacular array of natural wealth. A number of international organisations are now working to ensure that they also offer inhabitants a high quality of life.
Mountains, many of them spectacular, occupy 65 per cent of Georgia’s territory, providing the country with priceless resources such as clean energy and water, as well as offering ideal locations for farming, recreation and tourism.
However, highland residents face high rates of poverty and high risks from the devastating weather extremes that come with climate change.
International Mountain Day last week offered the various organisations and agencies working to improve the quality of life in Georgia’s mountain regions the opportunity to shine a light on the challenges faced by those living there.
