On March 24, Georgia Today (GT) celebrates it's 20th anniversary. Before we take a look at some of the birthday messages we received from our readers, here are a few words from our founder, George Sharashidze:
"On behalf of Georgia Today’s team, I would like to thank all our readers, advertisers, partners and stakeholders who played such a significant role in developing Georgia Today as a modern media brand with a potential to become the leading media channel not only in Georgia but beyond. I do hope that this crisis will soon pass, and we all together will celebrate victory over coronavirus and then, equipped with new knowledge, new experience, strengthened with new abilities, that we can all together make our world a better place to live in."
And now to our readers:
"When you arrive in Georgia, you don’t know too much: You can´t remember the names, the faces. You can´t pronounce the food, the streets, the political parties. You got no clue where to go for dinner, who to invite for lunch and what to do during the weekend. But there is one item that welcomes you in the hotel or on Twitter: Georgia Today. They offer great information for the newcomer, food for thought for the seasoned diplomat and well-researched analyses on the challenges in this country. All the best for the next 20 years and bravo to the GT Team!" - Arad Benkö, Ambassador of Austria to Georgia
"CENN would like to congratulate Georgia Today its 20th anniversary and express our gratitude towards their tireless work to cover important issues across Georgia. We are particularly happy to see environmental issues prominently featuring in their weekly journal and their keen interest to cooperate with CENN to raise awareness and and develop a progressive society that values and protects the environment." - Nana Janashia, Executive Director of CENN
“As a former journalist, I can say that covering a vibrant and dynamic society like Georgia for an entire twenty years is an amazing opportunity. The challenges the country has faced and the achievements it has recorded have depended on an informed public and media that reach out to an ever broader and more inclusive community. I congratulate Georgia Today on its anniversary and wish its team to continue to meet the high standards of public service in journalism. Today, when the world is craving information in the face of complex and often unpredictable threats, such as the pandemic or climate change, we need accurate and balanced journalism more than ever.” - Louisa Vinton, Resident Representative of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in Georgia
"Twenty years already! Huge congratulations to everyone responsible for producing 'Georgia Today'.

“Georgia Today has played a key role during the past 20 years to provide timely news and analyses about Georgia and global affairs in the English language.
