The Presidency of the Republic of Kosovo congratulates and supports the nomination of the KRCT and Ms. Feride Rushiti for the Nobel Peace Prize and felicitates her and the KRCT organization, which she has led for several years. The KRCT organization has been continuously supported and encouraged by the Presidency of Kosovo, and over the years, has been among the main partners in organizing the International Forum on Women, Peace and Security and in advancing this agenda in Kosovo. This organization has not only contributed to the rehabilitation process of survivors of sexual violence during the recent war in Kosovo but has also played a key role in building policies that support the betterment of the well-being and status of this category within our society. KRCT, in addition to its contribution within Kosovo, is recognized as one of the organizations that assist survivors of sexual violence during war and conflict in various countries around the world, thus sharing Kosovo’s experience in building support mechanisms for survivors of sexual violence during war.
Special gratitude also goes to the Swedish MP, Magnus Jacobsson, who submitted the proposal to the Nobel Peace Prize Nominating Committee. Additionaly, he was personally involved in events that included the topic of sexual violence during war and conflict, such as the International Forum on Women, Peace and Security.
