The Tbilisi School for Social Research

The Tbilisi School for Social Research (TSSR), also known as the "Library about Georgia," is a distinguished grassroots organization based in Georgia. Our primary aim is to foster evidence-based policy development and innovative solutions for the socio-economic advancement and democratic governance of Georgia. A significant aspect of our work focuses on the de-occupation and reintegration of Georgia's occupied territories, aiming to contribute to a peaceful resolution of conflicts within the region. Our main activities include conducting in-depth research, developing policy recommendations, and organizing educational seminars and workshops. We are particularly renowned for our "Library about Georgia," which has expanded to include not only literature about Georgia but also works on regional studies and specialized fields like architecture and urban planning. This expansion has enabled us to evolve into a vibrant learning and networking hub for local communities, displaced persons, migrants and international researchers. Our target groups are primarily young people and young professionals, including students, academic communities, and young leaders. We are committed to empowering this demographic through education, skill-sharing activities, and active participation in democratic processes. By engaging with the youth, we aim to promote Georgia's European aspirations and contribute to the broader goal of youth empowerment across the region.
