The United Nations Economic Commission for Europe Environmental Performance Review Programme assesses progress made by individual countries in reconciling their economic and social development with environmental protection, as well as in meeting international commitments on environment and sustainable development.
The Third Environmental Performance Review of Georgia takes stock of the progress made by Georgia in the management of its environment since the country was reviewed in 2010 for the second time. It assesses the implementation of the recommendations contained in the second review. The third review covers policy-making, implementation and the financing of environmental policies and projects. It discusses also issues on air protection, water and waste management, biodiversity and protected areas, energy, industry, agriculture, transport, forestry, tourism, health and risk management of natural and technological/anthropogenic hazards. The review makes suggestions for strengthening efforts towards a comprehensive and systemic response to sustainable development challanges.
