Counter-disinformation Intervention: Value/Identity Issues and Anti-Western Propaganda

By embedding European values into the Georgian national identity, the project aims to promote the development of a common vision towards European integration.

Fostering Inclusivity: Enhancing Understanding of the European Union among Ethnic and Religious Minorities
Project: The project addresses a significant challenge in Georgia's path towards (EU) integration, underlining the crucial necessity of uniting the entire population around a shared national issue, thus fortifying comprehension of the fundamental principles of the state. A notable challenge lies in the absence of comprehensive surveys targeting ethnic and religious minorities to ascertain their perspectives on EU integration. No prior efforts have been made to inquire about their reasons for opposition or lack of support, nor have their conflicting values have been adequately explored.
