The following article reviews women’s problems in Georgia and the attitude of society toward the subject. Due to the fact, that country tries to develop into a European state with worthy European values, there still is a huge problem in gender issues. Thus, it is clear that Gender politics is one of the main and essential indicators for the country’s democratic development. Many non-government organizations and other social bodies are working on the problem; they have gradually introduced gender equality into the political discourse and placed it on the list of required reforms. However, along with many other emerging social problems and political tensions, this issue has not yet paid any closer attention.
