At the initiative of the Ministry of Justice, a digital university will be established for convicted students. According to the Minister of Justice, "an innovative idea is to create an electronic platform for universities, which will offer digital services to students with special needs.”

Rati Bregadze spoke about creation of a digital university for convicts at the presentation of the Justice Ministry's 10-year strategic plan. According to the Minister, "Digital University will increase the opportunity and interest of prisoners to receive higher education, which will help their rehabilitation and re-socialization."

The digital university will start functioning in September in cooperation with universities, which will allow convicted students to receive a full-fledged education, said Rati Bregadze.

Digital University will give convicted students the opportunity to study individually. They will be able to attend online lectures and have interactive communication with lecturers.
