Brief Description of the GPKT Project

The overall objective of the GPKT Project is to foster sustainable inter-ethnic and cross-border practices for systematic co-operation in the Gjilan/Gnjilane-Presevo-Kumanovo-Trgoviste (GPKT) micro-region. This is seen as a concrete underpinning to promoting security and co-operation in the wider region, regardless of the final status of Kosovo. The GPKT Project began in the field in Spring 2003, , with the second phase of the Project starting in December 2005 and running until May 2008, supported by the EWI offices in Gjilan/Gnjilane (Kosovo), Skopje (Macedonia) and Vranje (Serbia).
 


GPKT Media Working Group

Following consultation meetings in early 2004, the GPKT Media Working Group was established in June 2004 with the aim of formalising working relations among media organisations in the GPKT region, as transfrontier co-operation among the various media would not only serve this particular sector but would also be crucial for the success or failure of any transfrontier co-operation activity. The Working Group members, primarily television station directors and chief editors, decided to regularly exchange information, transfer experience and work together to identify priority initiatives for media in the micro-region.
 


GPKT Women’s Working Group

The GPKT Women’s Working Group was established in the late Summer of 2004: members include women NGO activists and leaders, women professionals and women community representatives, and the Group comprises women from all four municipalities and ethnicities in the GPKT area.
 


GPKT Education Committee

Following the Education Working Group meeting held in November 2004, the GPKT Education Committee was established. The Committee includes teachers, school directors/head teachers, municipal education officials, and parents who are linked to various kindergartens, primary, and secondary schools from all of the four municipalities and ethnic groups in the GPKT micro-region.
 


GPKT Youth Council

Born out of meetings in early 2004, the Youth Working Group enthusiastically established itself as the GPKT Youth Council at its December 2004 meeting. Including young people from all four municipalities and ethnic groups, between 16 and 22 years of age, the Youth Council has attracted many who are already involved in the work of youth NGOs or similar initiatives.
