Adjara. On September 25, the coalition "Human Rights Protection in Healthcare" has met with the Georgian Bar members in the Batumi Civic Engagement Center. The coalition was built on the base of 8 NGOs and its main objective is to regulate the disputes between patients and physicians through mediation. The idea to create the network of advocates was proposed at the meeting. These advocates will specialize in a specific area, and in particular they will consult and advocate mainly persons having problems in the field of healthcare. These advocates will be trained in mediation.

The project – "Human Rights Protection in Healthcare through Mediation" is implemented with the financial support of the "Open Society - Georgia" Foundation.
