Dear Tamar,
I am glad to hear that Georgia is already discussing strategies for next steps and plans for long-term perspective. As you know we allocated funding for TAs under the project, this funding can be used for this consultancy service. I am
copying our procurement team to keep them in the loop and make sure I don’t miss an important detail regarding the eligibility.
By the way, Georgia was mentioned in Washington Post newspaper this weekend as one of the countries that USA and other countries can take lessons from. Here is the link:

Dear Volkan
I hope all is well with you? These days we’ve been discussing strategies and approaches for next steps for adequate COVID 19 response in the medium to longer term perspective. As you may know the Government has recently introduced an overarching
post crises plan which has to be followed by sector specific plans. We thought it is the right time now to bring all health stakeholders together to plan for the next phase and develop targeted post crises strategy for the health sector development. May I
ask if it would be possible to mobilize TA with the WB support to assist us with this exercise. We could identify a senior expert with international experience currently based in Georgia to assist with developing the post crises health sector strategy.
I would appreciate your feedback on that and if you think this is feasible, we can then elaborate details.
With kind regards
Tamar
