School of European Integration in Mitrovica is a one semester long educational program for members of public institutions, civil society and students from the north of Kosovo. The project aims to help citizens feel less removed from the subject of European integration. The project will promote the importance of greater knowledge on the workings of the EU, raise public awareness and encourage public dialogue regarding the process of European integration.
