თამუნა რო მოიცლი ჩინელებზე შევხდეთ. მე კი დავიწყე უკვე მომზადება მაგრამ მაინც მინდა შენთან გავირო რამე ხომ არ არის რაც გინდა რომ ჩავსვა აჯენდაში

Dear Mariana and Nino
I am writing to confirm that the group from China will arrive in Georgia as follows:
Weds 4 September | Travel to Tbilisi from Stockholm - German Lufthansa Airlines LH2419/LH2556 18:25-04:05 |
Thursday 5 September | Arrive Tbilisi 04.05 am |
Friday 6 September | Tbilisi |
Saturday 7 September | Tbilisi Travel to Beijing- China Southern Airlines CZ6040 22:05-12:40 |
I have also been informed that one of the group members Mr Qi Chen will no longer participate and will be replaced by Ms. Zhang Jing, Principal Staff Member, Social Work Division of Department of Charity Promotion and Social Work, Ministry of Civil Affairs. If it is possible to send another invitation letter for Ms Zhange Jing, that would be very helpful. We are sorry for this last minute change and hope for your kind understanding.
As mentioned in previous correspondence with Deputy Minister Tamila Bakalaia, we hope that the study tour can provide exposure (observation, discussion, learning) for participants in relation to:
1. Social work services for children of all ages from birth up to 18 years of age: children with disabilities or chronic health conditions and their families, children and families living in poverty and social exclusion, children at risk of abuse, neglect and violence, children without adequate care or guardianship of their family.
2. Government and non-government (civil society) community based social work services that work with children when they are living with their parents, their wider family (such as grandparents or aunts/uncles), or with substitute families where their legal guardians are not relatives.
3. Social work policies and services that have demonstrated evidence of effectiveness and that are flexible in meeting a wide range of individual needs by supporting parents and families in the community to provide adequate care for their children.
As part of the programme it would be great if they can meet with your Ministry and SSA, to visit municipal child welfare services and other SSA community services for children and families, meet with the Georgian Association of Social Workers and other NGOs and with the Parliamentary committee that is overseeing implementation of the new law on Social Work. The main focus will be on services delivered in the community and not in residential settings. Some exposure to small group homes or other residential services may however be useful to provide a full system overview. It may also be relevant to meet the Ministry of Education to talk about social workers in school settings.
I would be grateful if you can share a programme for the days that the group will be in Georgia. I can also help you to make arrangements for the programme if needed, please let me know if there is anything I can do.
With kind regards and looking forward to hearing from you.
Jo
