Germany is supporting Georgia’s development in the sciences, technology and education sectors and is pledging to share its experience with the country as Georgia works to advance these fields.
Germany’s Minister of Education and Research Johanna Wanka met a Georgian delegation in Berlin, led by Prime Minister Giorgi Kvirikashvili, where he spoke about Germany’s support for Georgia’s democratic development.
Kvirikashvili briefed the German Minister about the Georgian Government’s Four Point Reform Agenda and intended education reforms, which were part of the overall reform plan.
