During discussions with representatives of the New Social Initiative, information was exchanged on the dynamics of project implementation, which aims to contribute to the normalization of relations between Belgrade and Pristina by engaging young people and civil society organizations in inclusive dialogue initiatives and fostering innovative approaches to overcoming social divisions and mistrust.

Additionally, the discussion also covered the position of the Serbian community in Kosovo and the challenges they face daily.
