Kosovo Women’s Network (KWN) Chair of the Board, Ariana Qosaj-Mustafa together with the Executive Director of KWN, Igballe Rogova visited the Central Election Commission (CEC), where they met with the President of this institution, Valdete Daka.

KWN representatives congratulated the CEC on its successful work in early parliamentary elections held on February 14, 2021.  These were first elections held without the assistance and supervision of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), and KWN praised the CEC on the successful conduct of this process, including both voting and counting so far.

CEC applauded KWN’s dedication and effort to increase women’s participation in political and decision-making processes, as well as awareness-raising campaigns calling for more women to be voted in elections.

During this meeting, KWN and CEC pledged to maintain their cooperation.

KWN values elections as a fundamental element of a democratic state, and gender equality as a vital right for each of us, and therefore is constantly committed to providing equal opportunities for citizens to participate in elections and to be represented in institutions.
