The “Manual for Women’s Liberation – Kosovo Edition” developed by NGO CASA, was presented yesterday at the European House in North Mitrovica. This manifesto was developed as a result of a series of workshops held under the Emancipation Club initiative.
Earlier this year, in February and March, the Emancipation Club hosted four themetic workshops at the: Women as Agents of Change, Women’s Activism, Leadership and Volunteerism, Conflict Resolution, and Women in the Media. Consequently, the manual’s chapters reflect these themes, covering: Women and Gender, Women Lead, Women and War, and Women and Media.
The manifesto was presented by Dušica Jovičić, author and researcher at NGO CASA, and Milica Kostić Stojanović, a journalist and activist from Gračanica. This manual is intended for all young women in Kosovo who are on the path to freedom and recognize that women’s solidarity transcends political, geographical, and cultural barriers.
During the presentation, key topics from the manual were discussed, along with potential solutions and opportunities for female emancipation through inter-ethnic collaboration and understanding.
The event was attended by young people familiar with these issues, as well as representatives from civil society organizations and the media.
This activity was part of the Barabar initiative, supported by UNMIK.
