This report of the first WHO mission to Georgia in this context, completed in May 2019, summarizes the findings on already ongoing intersectoral initiatives of national and international development partners, and suggests actions to intensify intersectoral work in the future. The suggestions are based on consultations with national and international development partners, and co-signatories of the common position.
