|a The objective of the Rapid National Assessment is to analyze the current legal, policy and institutional
setting and existing practices for natural resources management at the national level and to suggest
improvements towards managing Georgia’s natural resource base more sustainably and in an integrated
way within natural boundaries of landscapes/watersheds. The focus is on sectors for water, land,
biological and mineral resources management as well as on sectors having adverse impacts on
ecosystems, including agriculture, energy, and water supply. The existing enabling environment and
current practices for waste management, natural disasters and climate change, significantly affecting
the country’s resource base, are also considered.
The study concludes that the current legal, policy and institutional frameworks do not support
integrated natural resources planning and management within boundaries of river basins/watersheds.
There are few provisions in environmental laws that require simultaneous management of natural
resources. Most of these provisions are contained in the existing and draft laws on water. However,
even in these laws the focus is on water resources with little or no consideration of other resources.
Furthermore, these provisions are very general and need further elaboration. |
