One of the key components of Bakhvi HPP's educational support program is the student support initiative. This program aims to assist and provide financial support to graduates of Mtiispiri and Chkhakhaura public schools who enroll in higher education institutions in Georgia, specializing in hydropower, engineering, or environmental sciences. This program has been active since 2022.
Currently, Jaba Bolkvadze, a resident of Mtispiri, is benefiting from the Bakhvi HPP student grant. He enrolled in the Faculty of Energy Engineering at the Technical University of Georgia in 2022. Jaba was a student at Mtispiri Public School and learned about the program through Bakhvi HPP's training course.
“We, as parents ourselves, understand how crucial it is for a student to choose and plan their future correctly from the beginning. Providing support to young people in their educational journey is one of the most important things we can do for the future generation. That is why educational projects hold a priority place in Bakhvi HPP's social initiatives. In addition to informal training, we also have a student grant program available for applicants from the Mtispiri and Chkhakhaura villages. However, there are specific conditions and rules for applying for this grant. Maintaining the grant is also important, as it is directly proportional to the quality of education and academic performance. Through our grant, we encourage students to pursue so-called future professions, such as environmental protection, engineering, and energy-related fields. We believe there is a significant shortage of qualified personnel in these sectors in our country, while the demand is increasing day by day. As a company involved in the hydropower sector, we need qualified local personnel, the younger generation, which is the future of this country,” said Giorgi Abramishvili, Director of Bakhvi HPP.
Bakhvi HPP started receiving applications for the educational grant on July 1, 2022, and the program will run until the end of 2024.
