Mission

Sunday, September 21st, 2008

Contemporary world is characterized by intensive communication and information exchange process between nations in which republic of Georgia, on the edge of Caucasus and Black Sea regions, is actively involved. First of all it implies the dialogue between cultures in which the science plays a major role. The mission of the centre is to develop interdisciplinary researches and international scientific collaboration in order to make the culture of Georgia and generally culture of Caucasus and Black Sea regions more familiar to the world.

The Caucasus and Black Sea regions are relatively unexamined in terms of social and cultural studies, though significantly interesting areas in scope of anthropology, ethnography, archaeology, folklore and arts. The mission of the Centre for the Study of Caucasus and Black Sea Region at the University of Georgia is to contribute to the development of international scientific contacts and researches in abovementioned spheres. Hence, the centre offers a comfortable research environment and scientific assistance of experienced Georgian scholars to foreign scientists and students who are interested in research of Caucasus and Black Sea regions. Joint scientific researches and projects, seminars, conferences and symposiums implemented within the centre will be one more step towards an international cultural space where the scientist feels as “at home in the world”.
