We, representatives of the civil society organizations of Georgia, being dedicated to the principles of non-partisanship, respect for human rights and diversity of opinions as well as culture of non-violence and civil responsibility, consider as our personal and professional duty to take direct part in the resolution of the political crisis emerged in the country.

Currently we do not only fixing escalation of the confrontation between different political parties, but also absence of the constructive approaches to its possible resolution within the all forces of the country political spectra, which might create long-termed systematic confrontation and parallelizing of the whole society. Prolongation of such dead-end situation takes Georgia back to the previous stages of its development, while country is already challenged by number of obstacles and limitations at the national and international levels. We see genuine role of the civil society not in simple protest but in obtaining of vision of the own future in line with establishment of the human and development values. That is why today we not only act as watchdogs of democracy and human rights but as ordinary citizens of the country striving for peace and public accord. We see our and your role in enhancement of the political and civil culture of the constructive action, but not of confrontation in sake of confrontation or mechanical change of political leaders.

We also believe that citizens have right to receive clear information from any political group about their vision of the country development and, what is more, have right to influence these visions, not following blind folded governmental and oppositional leaders.

With all mentioned above in a view, we, group of civil society organizations, are intended to:

• 
  Act as a resource in order to contribute to the mediation of the conflict in a way allowing to establish long-lasting public accord and direct participation of citizens in decision-making processes
• Collaboration with the international organizations to promote stability in Georgia
• Carry out complex non-partisan monitoring of the realization of right of Georgian citizens for peaceful assembly and activities of the all subjects responsible for the guaranteeing and protection of this right
• Provide space for the reflection of the opinion of citizens on the possible ways of resolution of political crisis
  Promote dissemination of the balanced and precise information about situation in Georgia
  
  Initiative is open for any civil actors or citizens groups sharing values of the program.
