Summary/Abstract: In Georgia, gender budgeting is considered an integral part of program budgeting. Under Georgian law, program budgeting has been practiced at the central government level since 2012 and at the local and autonomous republic government level since 2013. In keeping with this legislation, the state budget has been developed using a program budgeting format since 2012 as have municipality and autonomous republic budgets since 2013. The program budgeting format implies allocating appropriations according to priorities, programs, and subprograms. This includes information about the programs and subprograms, notes on their expected consequences and implementation assessment indicators, and capital projects.
