On 22 November, a group of students from the Department of Post-War Recovery Studies, University of York, visited the Kosovo Women’s Network (KWN). This is the third time that various generations of students from this University visit KWN in the context of study visits to Kosovo, over the last three years.
Adelina Berisha, Research and Advocacy Coordinator for gender-based violence and Nertila Qarri Gërguri, Project Coordinator of KWN informed the students of the work that the Network has done since its establishment. A particular focus during this meeting was put on the role the women and the civil society play in the process of dialogue, inter-ethnic reconciliation, refugee reintegration, and gender equality.
The representatives of the University of York thanked KWN for the time it made to welcome the students of this University for three years in row, emphasizing that such meetings help them acquire a hands-on experience of the best practices for empowering the roles that women and society play in all the facets of life.
