  • 1 Talking Women
    TALKING WOMEN 1 When the EUSR gender team proposed me a plan to reach out to the people in Kosovo and discuss gender, I immediately liked the idea. In January 2019, I launched a series of debates under the title: EU Gender Talks: Because We Make a Difference. Inequalities between women and men in Kosovo are still prevalent. So, the purpose was to have monthly discussions on different topics in relation to gender, with the aim of Ambassador raising awareness, contribute to the Nataliya Apostolova change of mentalities and improve Head of the EU Office in Kosovo / EU Special Representative gender equality policies in Kosovo. The 12 sessions have gathered more than 500 participants from Kosovo institutions, civil society organisations, EU Member States representatives and different audiences and topics made every session take other international stakeholders. They have included diverse shapes and sizes. Women were talking loud and interesting topics such as Women in Business, Gender we wanted the impact of their voices to be multiplied. and Youth, Gender in the Electoral Cycle, Women in This book ‘Talking Women’ is the result of it. I hope you Media and Women and the Environment, just to name enjoy reading it as much as I have. I can assure you that a few. the conclusions of the EU Gender Talks, together with the interviews of the 12 featured women, are stirring the Women are underrepresented in Kosovo’s public life, EU Office/EUSR policies and activities, as well as our particularly when it comes to decision-making positions. political dialogues with Kosovo authorities.
