Dear Deputy Minister Barkalaia,

Thank you for your willingness to participate in the radio talk show. The discussion will be held on Imedi Radio talk show “დღის მთავარი თემა“, and will be aired live at 14:00hrs on Monday 16^th of March on FM 105.9. The talk show will last 30 minutes and will also be broadcast live on the Imedi Radio Facebook Page and the UN Women Georgia Facebook Page.

The Gender Pay Gap report is attached and the guiding questions for the discussion are also attached – these are just a guide and the final decision on questions rests with Imedi Radio. Along with you, the other guests will be Lela Akiashvili and Nani Bendeliani and the show will be hosted/anchored by Nino Khugashvili. We request that you are at the venue approximately 20 minutes before the show at Radio Imedi, 5 Lubliana St, Tbilisi.

Dear Deputy Minister Barkalaia,

Given the current COVID-19 situation in Georgia, we have decided to change the format of the event for the 16^th. Instead of holding a public event, we propose now to hold a 30 minute radio panel discussion on the talk show “დღის მთავარი თემა" on Imedi radio. The radio show would be aired live at 14:00 on the 16^th of March and would be held at the Imedi Radio Station office. The panel would include yourself, Lela Akiashvili and Nani Bendeliani. As this is a live airing you would be at the Radio office at least 15-20 mins before the airing.

Please do let us know if this is acceptable for you. Lela Akiashvili has already confirmed her participation in the radio show.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.

Dear Deputy Minister Barkalaia,

Thank you for an excellent meeting yesterday. Further to our discussion, attached is the concept note and programme of the Gender Pay Gap Report Launch event to be held on the 16^th of March. We look forward to your participation.

Thanks,

Mehjabeen
