On 18 May 2018, Professor Maia Nadareishvili founded a new institute for American studies. The Georgian Association for American Studies and the Institute of American Studies at Ivane Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University inspired and encouraged Professor Nadareishvili, who was introduced to and practised American Studies at Tbilisi State University at the beginning of the 2000s. The idea comes from Professor Vasil Kacharava, Head of the Institute of American Studies at Ivane Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University and President of the Georgian Association for American Studies.
