Dear Sopo,

I apologize for not responding to your request.

The reason was simple: our collaboration has been so close that I did not think the request is also applicable for WHO. All our reports, findings, assessments and publications are shared with the ministry during the process and immediately after finalization.

On a regular base Georgian authorities share data with the organization, and the data are fully accessible on public web page http://www.euro.who.int/en/data-and-evidence/databases, in particular: European Health Information Gateway (https://gateway.euro.who.int/en/).

This data can be used for other publications, i.e. global or regional reports in different technical areas.

Some of the reports are published as a joint work of different partners, i.e. WHO-ECDC annual report on HIV

http://www.euro.who.int/en/publications/abstracts/hivaids-surveillance-in-europe-2017

The publications are available at the webpage: http://www.euro.who.int/en/countries/georgia/publications and include the following list for the last decade or more:

·         Evaluation report: proof-of-principle routine diagnostic project for antimicrobial resistance surveillance (2017)

·         Georgia. Highlights on health and well-being (2017)

·         Georgia. Profile on health and well-being (2017)

·         Fact Sheet – Tobacco Control – Newly Independent States

·         The functions and governance of purchasing agencies: issues and options for Georgia (2017)

·         Analysis of the epidemiological impact of tuberculosis in Georgia (2016)

·         Extensive review of tuberculosis prevention, control and care in Georgia 6–14 November 2014

·         Georgia country profile on nutrition, physical activity and obesity (2013)

·         Country profiles on nutrition, physical activity and obesity in the 53 WHO European Region Member States. Methodology and summary (2013)

·         Meeting report: prevention and control of measles outbreaks in the Caucasus, 10–11 July 2013, Tbilisi, Georgia

·         HIV/AIDS country profile 2011: Georgia

·         Georgia HiT (2009) (new one to be released within few weeks)

·         Georgia health system performance assessment 2009, WHO/Europe, 2009

·         Georgia health system performance assessment 2009. Executive report, WHO/Europe, 2009

·         Progress in the prevention of injuries in the WHO European Region: Georgia; WHO/Europe, 2009

·         Youth-friendly health policies and services in the European Region; WHO/Europe, 2009: Case studies from nine countries, including Georgia

·         Socioeconomic differences in health, health behaviour and access to health care (2008)

·         Highlights on health in Georgia; WHO/Europe, 2006

Other reports are of internal nature (i.e. working documents, draft strategies and similar) and are co-produced with the national authorities and immediately shared with the respective institutions: for example: the report in the area of UHC, GMP, rabies, hospital safety and similar.

Currently we have in production:

·         HiT

·         Quality of primary health care in Georgia

Later this year:

·         HUES (Health Utilization and Expenditure Survey 2017 (World Bank)

·         Primary Health Care: Analysis of Hospital Admission for Ambulatory Care Sensitive Conditions
