From 1989 to 1995, Bokeria was one of the leaders of various student movements, in particular an active member of the Press Club of Tbilisi State University.

[citation needed] In 1996, together with Levan Ramishvili, Bokeria co-founded the Liberty Institute, a Georgian non-profit, non-partisan, liberal public policy advocacy foundation, taking the job of coordinating human rights programs and later the position of senior legal advisor.

In 2003, after a visit to Serbia to study peaceful revolution techniques, Bokeria helped bring Serb activists from the youth movement Otpor!

As a result, the youth movement "Kmara" was established, which played a leading role in the November 2003 Rose Revolution.

In April 2008, he was moved to the post of deputy Foreign Minister of Georgia,[1] and in November 2010 to Secretary of the National Security Council.
