ISSUES OF IMPROVING WATER SUPPLY AND SANITARY CONDITIONS OF THE POPULATION OF GEORGIA IN SOME STRATEGIC AND PROGRAM DOCUMENTS

Abstract

In Georgia's socio-economic development strategies, national action plans and programs, the state of reflection of the issues of improving the provision of the population with drinking water and sanitary conditions was studied. It has been established that, in accordance with the Association Agreement with the EU, Georgia is implementing policy and institutional reforms in the area of environment and health. Projects are being implemented to reduce geographic disparities in safe drinking water and sanitation. The water supply and sanitation issues presented in the documents meet the basic requirements of the UNECE Protocol on Water and Health and the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (Goal 6.). However, there are still issues, both legislative and infrastructural, for the solution of which it is necessary to develop a specific vision for the development of these systems.
