Centre proceeds from the idea - unresolved problems of minorities in
the Caucasus is the main source of tensions and conflicts in the
region.

The Centre is a non-governmental, non-political, non-profit
organization. It monitors the compliance of Georgia to its obligations
as a State Party of the International Covenant on Civil and Political
Rights (especially its Article 27) and other International HRI.

The Centre studies the facts of infringement of the rights of the
persons belonging to national (ethnic) minorities, mobilizes public
opinion, carries out educational and scientific work among the
population in Georgia and in the Caucasus region as a whole. It
contacts with local and international NGOs, scientific centres and
governmental bodies which specialize in this sphere.

One of the main spheres of activities of the Centre is a participation
in the conflict resolution processes.

The full text of the publication is available to everybody by request

express our gratitude to Guram Svanidze, the author of the report, for
providing this text for MINELRES files.
