Local NGO representatives and Professor Muhamet Mustafa from Riinvest Institute discussed on March 10 the latest political and economic developments in Kosovo, at a roundtable discussion organized by ATRC.

Mustafa, an expert on economics, identified key areas where civil society could apply pressure: monitoring the implementation of laws and more actively fighting corruption. 

He applauded prior NGO efforts to push forward the privatization process and change the election system.      

Participants stressed that a lack of government accountability negatively affected political and economic developments in Kosovo.
