It grows with action. Natyra Kuçi steps forward, challenging norms and energizing a new wave of leadership. The path isn’t easy - but it’s theirs to claim. #EmpowerHer

It starts with courage. From Mimoza Kusari-Lila, the first woman mayor, to voices that refuse to wait their turn - women are breaking barriers in politics. Your voice belongs here. #EmpowerHer

Before courage, there is support. Stronger women build stronger communities, stronger democracy, and a more equal future. For 5 years, our Women Empowerment Programme has helped women at the local level grow, lead and rise. #EmpowerHer

Without truth and accountability, injustice risks repeating itself. On Missing Persons Day, we stand with families and institutions in #Kosovo in honoring those who remain unaccounted for. Resolving their fate will help restore their long-denied dignity.

Pleased to host @Erfan_A_Ali, @UNHABITAT's Regional Director for Eastern Europe & Central Asia, to further develop collaboration in spatial planning, property rights and cultural heritage. Agreement to co-ordinate our support for #Kosovo institutions and communities. @OSCEKosovo

Had the pleasure of meeting @Eurpeace Brussels representatives today to discuss developments in #Kosovo, briefing them on our work on inter-community dialogue and reconciliation. Normalizing #dialogue at all levels key to a cohesive, inclusive and resilient society. @OSCEKosovo

Met @HCeku to congratulate him on new post. As @OSCEKosovo partner in promoting culture & heritage, I’m confident he will share same commitment to inclusive, sustainable education & curriculum reform that reflects interests of all. Aligned on key priorities and future engagement!

An honor to host #NB8 🇩🇰🇪🇪🇫🇮🇮🇸🇱🇹🇱🇻🇳🇴🇸🇪 Ambassadors to #OSCE in #Kosovo today. They will meet partners & stakeholders, seeing first-hand @OSCEKosovo’s work supporting communities, human rights & democracy. Grateful for their support & all OSCE participating States for the Mission.

Great meeting new RYCO leadership, SG Vladimir Obradović & Team. As partners in initiatives aimed at enhancing youth & women's participation, we have a lot in common. Just today @OSCEKosovo published resources to help unlock youth potential. Youth voices more important than ever.

Journalists carry a heavy burden and heavy stories!📰🎤 Together with @AGK_AJK, we tackled mental health and ethical reporting, equipping reporters with the tools to protect themselves while covering sensitive stories responsibly. More👉omik.osce.org/node/663112

On International Fact-Checking Day, we reaffirm our commitment to truth, accuracy and accountability. #Fact-Checking is vital for informed public debate, and integrating #MediaLiteracy in education is a shield against #Disinformation and #FakeNews. omik.osce.org/mission-in-kos…

Amb McGurk: "Local government is where people feel governance most directly. The #MLGA is vital in helping municipalities respond to community needs. I was glad to meet Minister @elbertkrasniqi, express support for his new mandate, and reaffirm our continued close collaboration."

Women’s rights are human rights. This #InternationalWomensDay, let's remind ourselves that women have right to own property, live free from violence and fully participate in decision-making that shapes our society - in law and in practice. Equality isn't optional; it’s essential!

OSCE Mission in Kosovo notes ongoing uncertainty regarding @rtklivecom budget. Public service broadcaster must receive adequate and predictable funding in accordance with the Law on RTK to ensure its independence and fulfil its public service mandate towards all communities. 1/2

Pleased to attend my first #OSCE Chairmanship inauguration, meet @OSCESecGen with other Mission Heads. In a changing geopolitical landscape, the @SwitzerlandOSCE chairmanship’s priorities - #Dialogue, #Trust and #Security – set a clear path ahead. #OSCE26CH

Today marks 27 years from the #Reçak/#Račak massacre. We remember and honour the 45 lives lost, and extend our heartfelt condolences to their families. A reminder of the collective duty to uphold human rights, ensuring accountability and justice for all. #NeverForget

Honored to meet new Deputy COMKFOR Brigadier General Federico Collina. @OSCEKosovo and @NATO_KFOR share a common goal: the safety and well-being of all communities. Happy to renew our commitment as we start this new year! #StrongerTogether

A key figure who helped support the building of many key democratic institutions!in Kosovo. His contribution will not be forgotten. My condolences to his family at this sad time.
