In addition to publishing this Report, the launching of the platform for the public financing of the NGOs which contain all data on the public financing of the NGOs since 2015 is an outstanding success and another step towards increasing the transparency of public institutions in this area. We consider 2019 to be a successful year for the collaboration between the institutions of the Republic of Kosovo with the organizations of the civil society. This collaboration has continued with the purpose of implementing the priorities of both sectors and to achieve the governmental objectives for transparency, accountability and responsibility as defined by the Regulation MF- No. 04/2017 on the Criteria, Standards and Procedures of the Public Financing of the NGOs. The foundation for this collaboration has been laid out also in the Governmental Strategy for Cooperation with the Civil Society 2019-2023. The Office for Good Governance at the Office of the Prime Minister has given and continues to give a valuable contribution to advance transparency and accountability in the provision of public financial support for the NGOs in 2019 also. The contribution of the OPM should be viewed beyond this report, in particular as it relates to providing support to the public officials and the NGOs via training programs and raising the capacities of the public institutions to better implement the Regulation MF-No. 04/2017 on the Criteria, Standards and Procedures of the Public Financing of the NGOs. This report enables us to apprehend the progress that Kosovo has made in the sphere of the public financing of the NGOs, and the scope of collaboration between the Government and the civil society. At the same time it emphasizes the challenges that need to be addressed in the future so this area advances further. This report provides a series of recommendations and the Office for Good Governance/Office of the Prime Minister is committed to implement these in practice jointly with the public institutions. The Office for Good Governance/Office of the Prime Minister encourages all public institutions to strengthen their mechanisms for the purpose of applying the requirements of the legislation in power relating to the public financing of the NGOs. This will enable the increase of confidence in the public institutions and create a partnership with the civil society organizations. The application of the procedures, criteria and standards of transparency, accountability and competitiveness shall make it possible to achieve the objectives of the public financing of NGOs. Sincerely, Habit Hajredini, Director, Office for Good Governance – Office of the Prime Minister 4 1. INTRODUCTION The publication of the comprehensive report on the public financial support to the NGOs in the Republic of Kosovo for 2019 has become a continued practice of the Government of the Republic of Kosovo in the last four years. This report aims to increase the transparency and accountability of the public institutions, enabling at the same time the creation of a mutual trust between the public institutions and the civil society. Therefore, the continued publication of the annual reports on the public financial support to the NGOs has yielded its positive effects in improving the applicability of the legal regulations that cover the area of the public financing of the NGOs in the Republic of Kosovo. From the time of the first report for 2015-2016, when there were no unified rules with regards to the criteria, standards and procedures for the public financing of the NGOs and up until 2019, one can notice a qualitative improvement both in the aspect of establishing the legal framework and its application in practice. The Office for Good Governance at the Office of the Prime Minister is working on continuous basis with the public institutions to increase the transparency, accountability and the apply accordingly the legal framework that

    Student Movements: 1968, 1981 and 1997 The impact of students in mobilizing society to chant for the Republic of Kosovo Atdhe Hetemi Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of East European Languages and Cultures Supervisor Prof. dr. Rozita Dimova Department of East European Languages and Cultures Dean Prof. dr. Gita Deneckere Rector Prof. dr. Rik Van de Walle October 2019 i English Summary This dissertation examines the motives and central visions of three student demonstrations, each taking place within different historical and political contexts and each organized by a different generation of Kosovo Albanian students. The years 1968, 1981 and 1997 witnessed a proliferation of student mobilizations as collective responses demanding more national rights for Albanians in Kosovo. I argue that the students' main vision in all three movements was the political independence of Kosovo. Given the complexity of the students' goal, my analysis focuses on the influence and reactions of domestic and foreign powers vis-à-vis the University of Prishtina (hereafter UP), the students and their movements. Fueled by their desire for freedom from Serbian hegemony, the students played a central role in "preserving" and passing from one generation to the next the vision of "Republic" status for Kosovo. Kosova Republikë or the Republic of Kosovo (hereafter RK) status was a demand of all three student demonstrations, but the students' impact on state creation has generally been underestimated by politicians and public figures. Thus, the primary purpose of this study is to unearth the various and hitherto unknown or hidden roles of higher education – then the UP – and its students in shaping Kosovo's recent history.

This dualism between the economic gains and ecological imperatives have remained largely unbridged. The Albanian experience is not an exception to this trajectory. Although the different political and intellectual elites have considered forests a national patrimony, they have failed to defend and expand the forest-cover which have been shrinking. The territory of today’s Albania, due to its geographical position, climatic influences, and topography has a very rich flora, including forests. Like everywhere else, human activity has historically played a critical role in the condition and distribution of forest cover in Albania. Until the establishment of the Albanian national state, both the rural population and the elite exploited the forests without paying attention to their regeneration. The Ottoman Empire started to implement policies for the central management of the forests, but in the Albanian provinces, their effects were limited. The Ottoman bureaucracy did not stop the rural communities and landlords to log the forests for fuel, export their timber, burn them for opening new pastures or rooting out the bandits hiding in them.

  • The Kosovo War Tour: Dealing with the Country's War History As a Tour Operator
    The Kosovo war tour: dealing with the country’s war history as a tour operator Image 1. “Adem Jashari” memorial complex, Prekaz, Kosovo. 31 May, 2018. by Sarah Driessen Driessen s4361954/1 s4361954 August, 2018 ⁕ Preface ⁕ The first time I visited Kosovo was three years ago in 2015. The country caught my interest and I have been going back there every year since. This is why the decision to focus on Kosovo for my research was quickly made. As a tourist, you stand out, because there are not many there. I have seen the beautiful and positive sides of Kosovo but at the same time I have noticed how the country, years after the war, still has a long way to go. With my research, I want to give a helping hand and combine tourism with the development of the country and dealing with the war history. I have written this thesis for my master’s degree in Human Geography: Cultural Geography & Tourism at the Radboud University, Nijmegen. I went to stay in the capital of Kosovo, Pristina, for three months and experienced what it is like to live there instead of just being a tourist. I hope this thesis can be of value to the person reading it. Sarah Driessen Gendt, 7 August, 2018 Driessen s4361954/2 ⁕ Summary ⁕ This research looks at the possibility of offering a war tour in Kosovo as a way to handle the war history of the country as a tour operator. Kosovo has a negative image among Dutch people, which is mostly caused by the country’s war history.

Before its independence, Kosovo is an autonomous province under Serbia, which was part of Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRY). Kosovo has a long history of conflicts since the occupation of Turkish Ottoman Empire in Balkan Peninsula area until the recent one was the Kosova War in 1998 – 1999. As a post-conflict society, Prishtina is suffering from several urban challenges. One of these challenges is road safety issue indicated by increasing the number of traffic accidents in Prishtina and even nationwide. National government considered this situation as unusual for European countries. This study aimed to answer a research question on how the road safety is perceived from two main perspectives, which are road users (pedestrians and cyclists) and stakeholders in the producer’s level of road safety strategy in Prishtina. This study was conducted in urban zone of Prishtina, which is also the case study, with the regards to the increasing number of traffic accidents, which involve pedestrians and cyclists, as the vulnerable road users.
