About RHEA
The RHEA Union provides vocational training for adolescents and young people with developmental differences in Tbilisi and in Georgia’s multiethnic regions. At its centers in Tbilisi, Aspindza, and Akhalkalaki, local young people acquire professional skills through workshops in ceramics, textiles, and other crafts.
In 2017, RHEA founded the social enterprise “AmphoRHEA.”
Today, alongside its training and vocational workshops, AmphoRHEA also operates a handmade goods shop. Here, young people on the autism spectrum work together with professionals, demonstrating exceptional creative talent.

Location

Tbilisi

Tbilisi, Georgia

Tbilisi is the capital and the largest city of Georgia, lying on the banks of the Kura River with a population of around 1.2 million people. Tbilisi was founded in the fifth century AD by Vakhtang I of Iberia, and since then has served as the capital of various Georgian kingdoms and republics. Because of its location at the crossroads between Europe and Asia, and its proximity to the lucrative Silk Road, throughout history, Tbilisi has been a point of contention among various global powers. To this day, the city's location ensures its position as an important transit route for energy and trade projects. Tbilisi's history is reflected in its architecture, which is a mix of medieval, neoclassical, Beaux Arts, Art Nouveau, Stalinist, and Modern structures. Historically, Tbilisi has been home to people of multiple cultural, ethnic, and religious backgrounds, though its population is overwhelmingly Eastern Orthodox Christian.
