The Charter’s Council is set up to consider complaints submitted against journalists, and decide whether or not any ethical principle has been violated in the issue in question. In addition, the organization implements various projects. The Georgian Charter of Journalistic Ethics is a member of AIPCE (Alliance of Independent Press Councils of Europe). HistoryThe organization was founded on December 4, 2009. 137 journalists from various capital-based and regional media outlets signed to 11 principles,[1] and took up the liability of their protection. The citizens, on the other hand, were given an opportunity to apply to the Charter in the case of violation of ethical standard in the journalistic material. The Charter’s membership is ready to embrace any individual pursuing journalistic activity and sharing the Charter’s goals. The aspirants need to apply in writing to the Charter’s Council, which then makes the decision on the admission within a period no later than 2 months following the application. Initially, the Council was solely considering claims submitted against the signee journalists, but the general meetings held in December, 2013 resolved the consideration of applications against the non-signee journalists as well. Consequently, the number of cases has been increasing since 2014, and as per the December 2016 data, 105 cases has already been considered. The organizational structure has also been developing gradually. In 2012, Tamar Kordzaia was appointed executive director of the Charter, followed by the establishment of the Charter’s Secretariat, headed by David Kldiashvili. In the beginning of 2013 Tamar Kordzaia quit her post, and was substituted by Tamar Rukhadze,[2] replaced by Nata Dzvelishvili in 2015. Prior to the parliamentary elections of 2012, the Charter of Journalistic Ethics carried out a pre-election monitoring in conjunction with an established Slovak company Memo-98.[3] The research targeted both the qualitative and quantitative data. Afterwards the Charter continued realizing various projects, as either a solitary effort or jointly with partner organizations. Structure of the CharterThe Charter’s supreme managing body is represented by the general meeting of the Charter’s members, convoked by the Council in December every year, where the members introduce changes and additions to the Charter’s regulations, and consider various issues. The Charter’s managing body is a nine-member council, elected by the signees at the general meeting. The Council members are selected through assignment of quotas: three members picked out from journalists /editors registered in Tbilisi, and 6 members out of journalists/editors registered outside Tbilisi. The Council’s composition is updated on yearly basis by one-third. The Council elects its head for a period of one year. The Council meetings are held at least monthly, apart from situations when no cases have been prepared for consideration in the Council, with no other issues pending. The Council appoints the executive director through a contest for one-year term. Control over the compliance with the Charter’s regulations and the spending of funds or other assets according to prescribed goals is realized by the Revision Commission of the Charter, composed of three members selected for a two-year term by the general meeting. The Revision Commission then appoints its head within a month following its establishment, and follows its own set of rules. Rule s for consideration of claimsAny natural person or legal entity is entitled to apply to the Charter concerning a journalistic violation. The proceedings are initiated by the Charter on the basis of claim submission, registered by the Secretariat of the Charter’s Council, and forwarded to the Council after checking of the formalities for the further decision. The applications are examined at the public session of the Charter, with the participation of both the claimant and defendant. Following the consideration of the case, the Charter takes a decision as to whether the principle specified by the claimant has been violated in the disputable material. The decisions are published on the Charter’s webpage. Council

Other civil society members have, meanwhile, an opportunity to express their opinion on media in the Blogs section.
