On International Day to End Impunity for Crimes Against Journalists, we spoke with Yll Zekaj about his work providing legal assistance to journalists through Asociacioni i Gazetarëve të Kosovës - AGK, with support.

Journalism is under pressure.

Today, we stand with those who keep it free.

Independent journalism is essential to democracy. It holds those in power accountable, helps people make informed decisions, shapes public debate, and gives voice to different perspectives.

🤝 Proud to support NGO Roma in Action - RIA in producing the documentary “The Road to Success – The Power of Education”, and organizing awareness-raising sessions to promote the importance of education and help prevent school dropout and early marriage.

Through real-life experiences and open dialogue, the sessions encouraged students to reflect on the role of education in promoting equal opportunities and building a more inclusive and sustainable future.

congratulates the municipality of Gračanica/Graçanicë the re-establishment of its Local Women’s Caucus (LWC), reaffirming its commitment to strengthening women’s participation in local governance and public life.

During the consultative meeting, held with the support of the OSCE, women municipal assembly members, the mayor’s chief of cabinet, other municipal officials and women civil society representatives discussed the needs and challenges faced by women in the municipality, identified priorities and elected the LWC’s new leadership.

The re-established LWC offers an important platform for women from different backgrounds, including municipal assembly members, civil society and non-majority communities, to exchange experiences, raise concerns and contribute to more inclusive decision-making.

The OSCE remains committed to supporting the LWC in advancing gender equality, promoting meaningful participation and ensuring that women’s voices are heard in local decision-making. We encourage all interested women to join the initiative and contribute to turning shared priorities into action!

How can civil society turn trial-monitoring findings into real justice reforms?

At the regional forum “From Paper to Practice: The Role of Civil Society in Supporting Effective Justice Reforms,” held in Budva under the Regional Trial Monitoring Project, participants from across the Western Balkans explored how evidence from organised crime and corruption trials can drive reforms, strengthen transparency and improve public communication about justice.

The discussion built on our latest Western Balkans Trial Monitoring Report 2026, which examines progress in the judiciary’s handling of organised crime and corruption cases: https://www.osce.org/conflict-prevention-centre/668982

Florent Spahija of Kosova Democratic Institute / Transparency International Kosova was among those sharing their views.

As part of its efforts to support municipalities in the implementation of the Strategy for the Advancement of the Rights of the Roma and Ashkali Communities in Kosovo 2022-2026, implemented an awareness raising activity with the Municipal Action Committee of Lipjan/Lipljan, with children attending the Voice of Roma, Ashkali and Egyptians-run school-based learning centre in Gadime/Gadimlje village.

Deputy Mayor of Communities, Mehreme Goliqi, gave a presentation on the importance of education and continuing with formal schooling to a group of primary-school pupils, from the Kosovo Ashkali community.

This was also an opportunity to bring representatives of the municipal administration to the learning centre to raise awareness about the value of this extracurricular space, and advocate for greater municipal support.

As part of its support, the OSCE provided the learning centre with art and learning material.

Discussions highlighted the importance of assessing youth needs, raising awareness among schools and the wider community, and exploring online application procedures to make participation more accessible.
