\u201cF\u00f6r att de bygger upp och skyddar demokrati i Georgien och uppr\u00e4tth\u00e5ller medborgerlig makt inf\u00f6r auktorit\u00e4r repression.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Georgian Young Lawyers\u2019 Association (GYLA) \u00e4r Georgiens \u00e4ldsta och mest framst\u00e5ende m\u00e4nniskor\u00e4ttsorganisation, som grundades 1994 av frivilliga jurister som bidrog till f\u00f6rslag p\u00e5 landets f\u00f6rsta konstitution efter sj\u00e4lvst\u00e4ndigheten. Under de \u00e5rtionden som f\u00f6ljt, har organisationen spelat en avg\u00f6rande roll i landets demokratisering, som f\u00e5tt sitt erk\u00e4nnande som moralisk kompass av det georgiska samh\u00e4llet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

GYLA\u2019s arbete omfattar alltifr\u00e5n att ge juridiskt st\u00f6d p\u00e5 gr\u00e4srotsniv\u00e5 till att arbeta p\u00e5 nationell och internationell niv\u00e5 f\u00f6r att uppr\u00e4tth\u00e5lla m\u00e4nskliga r\u00e4ttigheter. De har n\u00e5tt r\u00e4ttsliga segrar som har omformat nationell policy i landet. Fr\u00e5n att s\u00e4kerst\u00e4lla r\u00e4ttigheter f\u00f6r personer med funktionsneds\u00e4ttningar till att garantera utbildning f\u00f6r varje barn i Georgien samt att tvinga fram kompensation f\u00f6r f\u00f6rtrycket under Sovjet-eran. De har givit gratis juridisk r\u00e5dgivning vid 1,5 miljoner tillf\u00e4llen \u2013 i ett land med 3,7 miljoner inv\u00e5nare \u2013 och har varit ryggraden i landets civilsamh\u00e4lle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trots h\u00e5rd repression till f\u00f6ljd av Georgiens nya agentlagstiftning har GYLA valt att stanna i landet. De forts\u00e4tter med ett mindre team, som fokuserar p\u00e5 det mest angel\u00e4gna m\u00e4nniskor\u00e4ttsarbetet. Med mod och beslutsamhet, pressar organisationen p\u00e5 f\u00f6r en b\u00e4ttre framtid f\u00f6r alla georgier. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n

In Georgia, there is autocratic consolidation, but there is also resilience among the people: resilience that comes at a very high cost.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As Georgia\u2019s oldest human rights organisation, GYLA has strengthened the country\u2019s democracy for decades. With growing government repression, it\u2019s one of the only NGOs still standing to uphold human rights.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
