Some 700 vulnerable internally displaced persons in Georgia could soon be earning income by growing fruit, raising rabbits, breeding cattle, beekeeping, horticulture and other agricultural activities.

Financed by the European Union, the income diversification initiative is implemented by FAO and the Livelihoods Agency of Georgia’s Ministry of Internally Displaced Persons from the Occupied Territories, Accommodation and Refugees in Georgia. The Ministry will receive a grant of up to US$ 810 000 to carry out the programme.
