The paper “Gender equality policy in Georgia and challenges” combines a mixed study to explore important aspects of gender equality principles in Georgia a variety of areas, including women’s political involvement, quotas and mechanisms during elections, domestic violence and violence against women. Prevention, premature marriage as a form of violence. Public or non-governmental institutions working on these issues, research of state programs, which programs help citizens in involvement and development, empowerment of women and rural women, and economic prosperity. Georgian legislation, as well as gender budgeting and programs were studied. The data obtained from the studies give us a basis to draw the following conclusions: 1. Despite the positive general legal framework, Georgia fails to meet its international commitments in practice to uphold the principles of equal rights for women and gender equality. 2. Quotas system and mechanisms have been improved in Georgia again. 3. Georgia still lacks shelters and services for victims of violence. 4. There are no solid coordination mechanisms between the state agency and local self-governments. 5. Public servants need to acquire additional knowledge and experience on gender sensitivity, budgeting and program planning.
