Meet Our Monitors
My wish is to keep contributing to the Mission with the knowledge and skills…
Julian Schweighart, Austria, Monitor in Zugdidi

Back in 2008, when I first heard in the news about an ongoing conflict in Georgia, the whole scenario seemed to be so far away. I had never visited the South Caucasus before, but now I find myself in Zugdidi at the heart of it. Last October, I joined the Administrative Boundary Line (ABL) Team of Field Office Zugdidi...

Fieldwork gives colour to the way we work
Sanne Overvelde-Slagman, The Netherlands

By now, I feel like I have settled in completely into Georgia. I enjoy my strolls from my traditional Georgian house during these crisp winter mornings to Field Office Zugdidi.
