This research investigates the ways in which social work practices both reflect and reinforce geopolitical dynamics, focusing on the interplay between global and local influences in social welfare provision. It examines the social services provided by Georgian civil society organizations that support women, as well as the lived experiences of ordinary women from diverse socio-economic backgrounds. The study aims to map the landscape of global and local actors, funding sources, gender and feminized labor discourses, and target groups involved in these services. Additionally, it offers a historical analysis of social welfare in the post-socialist space, comparing how the transition from a socialist to a neoliberal model of welfare has impacted women's lives in Georgia. Through direct observation, participation in the daily operations of selected Georgian civil society organizations, and engagement with the everyday experiences of women, the research seeks to gain first-hand insights into these dynamics.
