The School of Social Sciences (University of Georgia-UG) conducted a three-day simulation exercise “Crisis Simulation and Response 2021”, a first attempt made by an academic institution in Georgia, with the participation of advanced level students and representatives of various state agencies. The objective of the exercise was to simulate a crisis scenario and identify problem areas in the existing policies to formulate respective policy improvements and recommendations. The pre-developed crisis scenario entailed several phases with the tendency of gradual escalation down to the direct military aggression and large-scale military confrontation.
