Cultural, scientific and technical cooperation

Our cultural cooperation prioritizes the training of Georgian elites through an attractive grant programme and the development of university courses. The French School of the Caucasus, which was established in September 2006, had more than 360 pupils in 2017-2018. A Franco-Georgian university is being created in the form of a network and will receive its first students in September 2019.
