The main goal of the survey was to make an overview of the state of domestic violence in four municipalities in North Kosovo and provide concrete policy recommendation to ensure the long-term sustainability of the intervention led by NGO Aktiv.

On 23 October 2013, AKTIV and FIQ, supported by Saferworld, within the frame of the project Strengthening Civil Society Organizations in Kosovo to contribute effectively in drafting security policies and decision-making, held the conference entitled "Citizens' views on key security matters in Kosovo".

Aktiv, in cooperation with Swiss NGO TechShare, delivered 10 laptops to the elementary school “Petar Kočić” in Brnjak, Zubin Potok municipality. The donations are part of the project “Technical and Technological Empowerment of Schools in the Municipality of Zubin Potok.”

A report based on the survey of 130 women across four (4) municipalities in North Kosovo that began on June 15 is forthcoming. The report will offer a detailed analysis of the results, which so far have revealed that over a third of women report being victims of domestic violence, and up to 45% report either victimhood or having born witness to it. Caleb Waugh is working hard to prepare the report, and it will be unveiled at a conference on (the tentative date of) 10 October.

Between August 19 and September 4, Aktiv surveyed small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Kosovo. Assembling the 331 responses into a comprehensive report is the next step of Aktiv’s project, “Single Market Kosovo.” Project manager Niall Ardill says he is on target to complete the data analysis and propel the project out of its “launch” phase and into phase 2.
