Project aims at contributing to the promotion of a tolerant multi-ethnic environment conducive to the rights-base and sustainable return and reintegration of minority IIDP, IDP, and refugee families. This is done in a holistic manner by consolidating the migration management capacities of civil society and government authorities on both the central and municipal levels. IOM Kosovo is partnering with three local NGOs: DT (Developing Together), APPK (Employment Promotion Agency Kosovo) and CPT (Center for Peace and Tolerance) all with many years of experience and expertise in different elements related to the returns process to strengthen the capacity of local actors to take over the implementation of returns programmes entirely.
Working from the level of the central government down through the local and community levels to the individual level and back up through civil participation the project has an inclusive multi-sectoral approach that is reflected in its specific objectives:
- to facilitate the Public Administration Reform of the MCR;
- to improve the effectiveness of municipal authorities in the return and reintegration process;
- to assist IIDP, IDP, and refugee families during the return and reintegration process through the provision of housing and rehabilitation local infrastructure;
- to promote the socio-economic integration of returnees, including support to minorities in overcoming their isolation by mainstreaming their needs.
