The Kosovo Public Policy Center is an independent, not-for-profit think-tank and research center based in Prishtina, Kosovo.The mission of the Center is to serve the best interest of the general public, academia, private and public sectors, as well as its clients and partners by providing policy alternatives and recommendations based on solid research and analysis; trainings and workshops in key policy and development areas; as well as facilitating professional forums on topics of socio-economic development, good governance, democracy, ethnic tolerance, and multiculturalism, etc.The Center strives to achieve its mission through three major pillars of work: Research, Analysis, and Alternatives. We believe that our three pillars of work as identified above are essential not only for producing good studies, but also and even more so for enabling us to practically do what is necessary to improve public policies of a developing, newly established country, such as Kosovo, especially in terms of democracy strengthening, capacity building, social cohesion, good governance, and empowerment of marginalized groups and civil society.The Center engages many scholars and other professionals from diverse backgrounds to serve on its research forums and projects, thus making sure that each task is undertaken by those who are better prepared to tackle it.
