APA's Georgian bureau reports that the presentation of the project took place in Tbilisi today.

Georgia’s Minister for Conciliation and Civil Equality Ketevan Tsikhelashvili, speaking about the pilot program of the internship which will be held with state support, said that the project will benefit Azerbaijani students. According to her, the goal of the program is to improve employment prospects for representatives of ethnic minorities who have learned the state language well and to give impetus to the process of civil integration.

The minister said that students who perfectly master the state language after passing the competitive selection will be able to get a three-month internship in government structures. It is expected that in the future some students will be provided with work in these structures.

It should be noted that within the framework of the program, about 50 Azeri students will undergo a three-month internship.
