Security Information Centre opens in Gracanice, Kosovo |
|
April 2009 - As part of the SafePlace project, Saferworld and the Forum for Civic Initiatives (FIQ) have provided support for Communication for Social Development (CSD) a non-governmental organisation (NGO) from Gracanice to create a Security Information Centre. CSD is one of the eight NGOs who were involved in Saferworld’s conflict analyses of 2007 and gave support in researching the report ‘Through the cross hairs – a survey of changing attitudes towards small arms in Kosovo’. As a follow-up to the conflict analysis CSD conducted a conflict mapping workshop in Gracanice. Based on the findings, CSD conducted a survey in Gracanice which identified the need for better communication between the citizens and institutions. CSD have established the new Security Information Centre with the aim of establishing sustainable two-way communication channels between the two groups. It is hoped this dialogue will contribute to a more secure community in Gracanice. |

Community safety conference in Kosovo |
|
February 2009 - Saferworld and our partner in Kosovo, the Forum for Civic Initiatives (FIQ) hosted a conference on community safety in Pristina. Over 50 people attended, including from our six community safety sites, donors, international and local organisations, police and government representatives. The event aimed to share experiences and lessons between communities and different agencies running community safety projects in Kosovo. It provided a good opportunity to feed into ongoing discussions on the development of national-level strategies on community and school safety. Most significantly, the panel consisted only of community representatives, giving them a rare platform from which to address government and donor agencies directly. |
