Caritas Czech Republic (CCR) is the largest non-state provider of social and health services in the Czech Republic, it also provides humanitarian aid and development assistance abroad. CCR has five permanent Country Offices - in Iraq, Georgia, Moldova, Mongolia, and Zambia - however, the organization is also working to improve lives of people in need in Syria, Lebanon, and Ukraine.

In Georgia, we have been focusing on development activities since 2008, when the country programme started. Until 2014, we worked mainly through cooperation with local partner organizations. A year later, Caritas Czech Republic´s full-fledged Country Office was established in Georgia. In our development interventions in Georgia, we focus on and healthcare, social protection, rural development, and environmental protection.

Our team focuses on the most vulnerable groups in the country, and strives to improve the health care services available to the Georgian population. We aim at greater social inclusion and stronger civil society in the country, providing assistance also to communities in rural mountain regions. Environmental protection is at the heart of several of our acitivities.

Caritas Czech Republic is part of more than 160-member global networks Caritas Europa and Caritas Internationalis, which coordinates emergency operations, formulates development policy, and promotes a better world for all.

Despite the fact that each Caritas operates as an autonomous unit, the member organizations form a confederacy which bands together in a time of any world crisis and acts as one.

Caritas Czech Republic with its headquarters in the Czech Republic provides social and health care services in Czechia, as well as humanitarian aid and development assistance abroad. In Georgia, we work along but independently from Caritas Georgia, another of the 160 members of Caritas global network.
