Nana Sardlishvili is among the many women, who work hard for the development of her family and community. However, her small village in Tetritskaro municipality with very interesting name – Tskhrakudiani (Nine Tales) has only one water pipe for the whole village. Two years ago Nana went to the village meeting where villagers decide on what infrastructural projects on which to spend the village money and raised the important issue of water supply. Her initiative was approved and all the families in Tskhrakudiani village have access to drinking water now. After this success women in this village became more active and in last year’s village meeting women initiated fencing in the village, in order to protect their crops from the cattle. The initiative was approved and the metal grid and a gate were installed.
