  • The Establishment of New Municipalities in Kosovo Budgetary Implications and Financial Self- Sustainability
    July 2013 The establishment of new Municipalities in Kosovo Budgetary implications and financial self- sustainability EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Following the local elections held in 2000, 30 municipalities became functional as basic units of local self-government. In 2005 UNMIK administration initiated the pilot project for establishment of new municipalities. Hani i Elezit, Junik dhe Mamusha, were established as pilot municipalities, whereas after the 2009 local elections acquired the status of municipalities with the right to exercise powers granted to other municipalities. In the meantime, in accordance with the Comprehensive Proposal for the Kosovo Status Settlement, four new municipalities where established, namely Graçanica, Partesh, Kllokot and Ranillug. The existing Law on Administrative Municipal Boundaries (2008) created the framework for establishment of new municipalities. After the 2009 local elections, 11 groups of villages have submitted requests to the Ministry of Local Government Administration (MLGA), acquiring the status of municipality. Until May 2013, when the Kosovo Government decides to create two new municipalities in the Has region, these requests were not taken into consideration. However, current decisions for the establishment of new municipalities and promises for establishment of additional new ones, are not based on adequate assessment of relevant ministries, as required by the Law on Administrative Municipal Boundaries. Although, the legal basis for establishment of new municipalities is not sufficient, ten requests of groups of villages submitted to the MLGA do not comply not even with the existing legal requirements set forth in the Law on Administrative Municipal Boundaries. The basic criteria on the minimum size of population and territory that each municipality should fulfill, is not provided.

  • Student Movements: 1968, 1981 and 1997 the Impact Of
    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.

Od Ljubotena do Koraba. i. Dr. Jože Pretnar: Planinsko-smučarska odprava v Južno Srbijo. Njen postanek in pomen. V poletju 1933 so me vodila moja planinska romanja preko planin Južne Srbije: čez Perister in Galičico na Korab, pa preko Šar Planine in Čakora na Kotor. Izpolnil se mi je s tem mladostni sen, da si ogledam deželo kraljeviča Marka. Vtisi, ki so jih na- pravili name ti divni planinski kraji s svojimi prirodnimi, zgodo- vinskimi in narodnimi zanimivostmi in lepotami, so mi ostali ne- pozabni; pustili so za seboj hrepenenje, da se še in še vrnem v objem teh gora. Pri pogledu na prostrane planjave in zložno pada- joče gole strmine, od temena najvišjih vrhov do podnožja, so mi, že takrat rodile prepričanje, da imamo ne samo v državi, temveč tudi Planinski Vestnlk, 1J3J, št. 7 177 v evropskih gorovjih malo planin, ki bi nudile tako odlične pogoje za planinsko smučanje. Takrat sem se poslovil od Koraba z obljubo: »Kmalu na svidenje — v zimi!« Ob priliki lanskega kongresa Zveze planinskih društev kralje- vine Jugoslavije, ki se je vršil v Beogradu, je v razgovoru z neka- terimi tovariši padla odločitev, da se v okviru Zveze in pod pokro- viteljstvom ministrstva za telesno vzgojo naroda priredi v zimi ali zgodnji pomladi skupinska planinsko-smučarska tura po grebenih in vrhovih cd Ljubotena preko Šar Planine, Popove Šapke, Aleksan- drovega Visa in Šutmana ob Rudoki in Vraca-Planini na gorsko gmoto Koraba.

The document was drafted in a participatory approach by involving a wide range of stakeholders and is based on the results of two State of Nature Reports (2006 – 2007 and 2008 – 2009) prepared by the Kosovo Environmental Protection Agency (KEPA) and reports from other sectors. The Kosovo Assembly officially approved the NBSAP 2011 – 2020 on 7 October 2011. The implementation of the Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan has to be an iterative and cyclical process, as the status and the trends of biodiversity, the threats to environmental goods and ecosystem services, the economic and social values, as well as the political framework may change during the years. Therefore, there is a need for a review and adjustment of this policy instrument, which is in accordance with Article 141 paragraph 5 of the Nature Protection Law No.

  • Bistra, Korab, Desat - National Park Mavrovo .: Macedonia Clasp of the World
    Bistra, Korab, Desat - National Park Mavrovo .: macedonia clasp of the world :. LAND: BISTRA, KORAB & DEŠAT MOUNTAIN - MAVROVO NATIONAL PARK The National Park Bistra Mountain Korab Mountain Dešat Mountain The National Park Mavrovo encompasses the most beautiful parts of western Macedonia, the mountains Bistra, Korab, South Šar Massifs, Dešat, the river Radika, Mavrovo Lake and the villages Mavrovi Anovi, Mavrovo, Leunovo, Nikiforovo, Gali•nik, Rostuše, Gari, Jan•e, Treson•e, Bituše and Lazaropole, with total area of 73,088 hectares. In order to preserve the natural wealth of the region, it has been designated as a National Park with the Law passed on March 3rd 1952, on account of "the historical and scientific significance of the forests and wooded areas around Mavrovsko plain, the specific landscape and the natural beauty of the region, the diverse flora and fauna and ethnological characteristics". In this area nature has created numerous beauties of different character. The relief, the climatic conditions, the hydrological and vegetative features, enhanced by human creativity, all contribute to making this region a particularly special place where the gifts of the nature and the resourcefulness of humans can be admired. The National Park Mavrovo encompasses numerous rivers, which present a real jewel in the crown of beauty for the mountain landscape, with their wild rapids, water-falls and incredible transparency: always full with clear and cold water, the springs never get muddy. One of the most impressive parts of the park are the striking gorges of the river Radika. The most dramatic is the Baric gorge. The horizon in front of the observer completely closes leaving open only the blue sky and the steep ascending rocks, in some places 1,500 m high.
