Subject: UNDP Georgia- potential partnership in response to COVID-19

Importance: High

Dear Ms. Gabunia,

On behalf of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in  Georgia, we would like to express our appreciation to the Ministry of Internally
Displaced Persons from the Occupied Territories, Labour, Health and Social Affairs of Georgia for successfully implementing the measures with the aim to overcome the health and development crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic situation.

UNDP would like to propose
its
support to the Ministry in urgently and effectively responding to COVID-19.
Therefore, we have carefully reviewed emergency response needs of the Government as shared by the Administration of Government on the 25 March 2020 and would
like to offer our assistance and further discuss possibilities of future cooperation in the following priority areas:

ü
Building information system for effective COVID 19 surveillance, data management and contact tracing systems. (These systems can be built on existing e-government structures);

ü
Strengthening first-point-of contact strategy for possible COVID-19 cases envisaging a centralized hotline, an online platform, and physical locations in specially established temporary
centers or primary care facilities.

We stand ready to support the Ministry in providing Technical Assistance (TA) to strengthen emergency response capacity of hospitals and
public health services in needs assessment, emergency response planning, monitoring and evaluation.  In addition, the TA may include inspection for the prevention and control in local clinics, and capacity development of physicians and nurses in managing severe
COVID-19 cases.

As you are aware, last week, we have already communicated with the Embassy of the Czech Republic,
who partially covers the similar activities and would appreciate your further guidance to outline from the above-mentioned areas, in which
the Ministry would require UNDP’s assistance.

Thank you very much for the effective partnership in advance.

Sincerely,

Salome Odisharia
