Two Georgian NGO's, WECF Partner Greens Movement of Georgia and the Water Global Partnership of Georgia, decided to organise a rally to clear the Alazani riverside in Telavi from rubbish on March 22, World Water day. 



Apart from the two organising NGO's also the Kakheti regional organization of the Greens Movement of Georgia and representatives of Telavi regional administration (Gamgeoba), were present, alongside  locals and civilians and the head of the Telavi regional administration, Mr. Vasil Davitashvili.

Due to recent unfortunate natural disasters in Georgia, the Alazani riverside is badly damaged. During the rally, the riverside was cleared of rubbish; disposable plastic bottles and polythene bags were removed.



At the end of rally, a meeting with all participants took place to further discuss future joint measures in order to solve not only problems concerning water but also other environmental problems of the region. The rally attracted a lot of attention from Georgian mass media.
