(2018). TEORETICAL APPROACH CONCERNING THE DEVELOPMENT OF SUSTAINABLE TOURISM AS TOURIST DESTINATION IN KOSOVO. GeoJournal of Tourism and Geosites, 22(2), 489–496. https://doi.org/10.30892/gtg.22218-305 Abtract: Tourism is an economic activity or a set of co-ordinated activities aimed at meeting the needs of individuals related to leisure and movement of people. Tourism has a great potential and plays an important role in meeting the main objectives related to, employment, sustainable economic and social development. Kosovo's tourism economy is dominated by small and medium-sized economic operators, while large economic operators are still in the process of privatization, and therefore it is required to find a favorable sectorial strategy that in the long term will ensure the sustainability of tour operators, offering a diversified tourist product. The findings of this study give special importance to institutional challenges that require identification of responsibilities and coordination of all actors involved in the tourism planning and development process. The surveyed tourism region offers critical reviews on how to assist tourism planners to improve their methods in community-based tourism planning and development, while pointing to directions for future research into tourist regions. -

Dr. - University of Applied Sciences in Ferizaj Address: Universiteti, 70000 Ferizaj, Kosovo E-mail: [email protected] Muhamet YMERI Assistant - University of Applied Sciences in Ferizaj Address: Universiteti, 70000 Ferizaj, Kosovo E-mail: [email protected] Florit HOXHA Assistant - University of Applied Sciences in Ferizaj Address: Universiteti, 70000 Ferizaj, Kosovo E-mail: [email protected] Rrahim SEJDIU Assistant - University of Applied Sciences in Ferizaj Address: Universiteti, 70000 Ferizaj, Kosovo E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The living trees contain an amount of water. Most of the water must be evaporated before the lumber obtained from a tree can be converted into products. The lumber from which most wood products are manufactured must be dried. In this study, the effects of meteorological conditions in some regions of Kosovo on drying of wood were examined. Of all the methods to remove large quantities of water from wood, air drying has the least capital costs, especially in the early stages of drying.The studying of the temperature, raining, wind, relative humidity and the all other meteorological factors in the surrounding air for a long period of time there have been able to know about the air drying of the wood in different regions of Kosovo. Timber will reach constant equilibrium moisture content by specific value of temperature and relative humidity. -

Drin Project
Call for Expressions of Interest: Final evaluation of the project ‘Design and testing of a multipurpose (transboundary) groundwater monitoring network (Albania & Montenegro)” (Submission deadline: 28 October 2020) The Antenna in Sarajevo of the UNESCO Regional Bureau for Science and Culture in Europe, is seeking expressions of interest from qualified and experienced individuals, to carry out the final evaluation of the project entitled ‘Design and testing of a multipurpose (transboundary) groundwater monitoring network (Albania and Montenegro)” I. Background Brief description of the project: 1.1 Drin Project Setting out from the two Prespa Lakes, linked to each other by a small channel, water flows through underground karst cavities to Lake Ohrid, the largest lake in terms of water volume in South-East Europe. The only surface outflow of Lake Ohrid, the Black Drin River flows north through the Republic of North Macedonia and enters Albania. The White Drin River flows into Albania, where it meets the Black Drin and forms the Drin River. Flowing westward through Albania, the Drin River meets the Buna/Bojana River, close after the outflow of the latter from Lake Skadar/Shkoder, the largest lake in terms of surface in South-East Europe. The Buna/Bojana River directly discharges into the Adriatic Sea. The overall concept for enhanced cooperation among the Riparians for the management of the Basin was initially discussed by representatives of the competent ministries and other key stakeholders during the International Roundtable on Integrated Management of Shared Lake Basins in South-Eastern Europe, organized under the Petersberg Phase II/Athens Declaration Process and the Global Environment Facility (GEF) IW:LEARN Programme, in Ohrid, on 12- 14 October 2006. -

Green Report 2014
GREEN REPORT 2014 December, 2014 Preface Agriculture and rural development are key sectors that can contribute significantly to the overall economic development of the country. Agriculture and rural diversification are two sectors that offer Kosovo real opportunities in poverty alleviation, creating new jobs and generating income for residents in rural areas. MAFRD through policies and development strategies is oriented in supporting production factors, in stimulating farmers and creating a more favorable developmental environment. These policies and strategies are creating opportunities to achieve sustainable development and a more efficient use of natural resources. The development of the agricultural sector plays a special role in improving the trade balance, reducing unemployment, food safety, environmental protection and the improvement of people's lives in general. Therefore, the agricultural sector remains a key priority for the Government. This is the second edition of the Green Report to be issued by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Rural Development, which presents a detailed overview of the agricultural sector and situation of rural areas in Kosovo. In particular it reflects the structural changes in this sector including policies and support programs that are being implemented by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Rural Development to intensify agricultural development and raise living standards in rural areas. This report combines many dimensions of agrorural sector, including foreign trade, food safety, organic farming, loans and other economic elements which create an information-rich platform. This document is not only evidence of the work done by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Rural Development but also of its genuine collaboration with other actors involved in its compilation. -
