The Chavchavadze Center's latest study examines how Georgian political parties develop and communicate their visions ahead of the 2024 elections. Based on analysis of party manifestos, interviews, and extensive media content, the research reveals a growing sophistication in parties' policy development but persistent gaps between political promises and citizen needs. While parties increasingly prioritize ideological positioning and policy expertise, they often struggle with internal communication and understanding their electoral base. The study finds that only one major party engages in broad grassroots consultation on policy development, while most rely on small circles of experts. This comprehensive analysis offers insights into how Georgian parties can better align their platforms with voter expectations and strengthen democratic processes.
