In 2017, Georgia ratified the Council of Europe Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence (\u2018Istanbul Convention\u2019) and has made efforts to align its legislation in accordance with its obligations under the Istanbul Convention.<\/p>\n<p>Most notably, starting from March 2021, the General Prosecutors\u2019 Office and the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Georgia began a specialisation program for investigators and prosecutors on sexual violence. This year, 80 investigators and prosecutors of the Prosecutor\u2019s Office, as well as 125 investigators of the Ministry of Interior, were trained and granted specialisation (by the end of 2021, up to 250 investigators of the Ministry of Internal Affairs will be specialised). The specialisation training is conducted by the Ministry of Interior and the General Prosecutors&#8217; Office in collaboration with the Council of Europe, UN Women, and Equality Now. They are based on the Equality Now, UN Women &amp; Council of Europe\u2019s &#8220;Effectively Investigating, Prosecuting, and Adjudicating Sexual Violence Cases: A Manual for Practitioners in Georgia&#8221; (2021). This manual aims to improve the response of the criminal justice system to sexual violence based on the Istanbul Convention and other international human rights standards. These trainings are an excellent basis for improving access to justice for sexual violence in Georgia, and the Ministry of Interior has already reported some improvement. However, the training efforts must be continuous (and, most importantly, involve judges). The long-term impact of the training is yet to be assessed.<\/p>\n<p>At the time of writing this report, Georgian legislation continues to fall short of the requirements of the Istanbul Convention and international human rights standards with respect to the definition of rape and other crimes of sexual violence, and substantial challenges remain in relation to reporting, preventing and the overall response by the criminal justice system to sexual violence.<\/p>\n<p>This shadow report is submitted by: Equality Now, Georgian Young Lawyers\u2019 Association (GYLA), Partnership for Human Rights

released their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coe.int\/en\/web\/istanbul-convention\/home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Baseline Evaluation Report on Georgia<\/a>, which reflected many of our recommendations including:<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><em>261. GREVIO urges the Georgian authorities to amend the provisions of the Criminal Code covering rape and the other sexual violence offences under Articles 138 and 139 of the Criminal Code and to fully incorporate the notion of the lack of freely given consent as required by Article 36 of the Istanbul Convention and to ensure that such provisions are effectively applied in practice by law enforcement, prosecutors and the judiciary, including where the circumstances of the case preclude valid consent. To this end, GREVIO strongly encourages the Georgian authorities to introduce guidelines and training programmes for all relevant professionals in the criminal justice system, which would reflect the understanding of rape as defined above.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><em>262.
