United States Agency for International Development (USAID) will assist the Georgian government in implementing its pilot resort management program, Trend reports via the Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development of Georgia.
A corresponding memorandum of understanding with USAID was signed in Tbilisi by representatives of the Ministry of Economic Development and the Ministry of Regional Development and Infrastructure of Georgia.
According to the memorandum, special structural divisions will be created for more efficient management of Georgian resorts.
"Together with local authorities, they will be responsible for improving municipal services, which, in turn, will help increase the tourist attractiveness of Georgian resorts," the report said.
The USAID economic security program will provide all possible assistance in this, which will promote the effective use of the potential of resorts and contribute to the country's economic growth.
