Law on Asylum in Kosovo, New Draft Law– RSD and reception standards

 

On 17 October 2011, as the right to asylum in Kosovo was included in the legal system and has started to be applied from 2008, and also given the lack of institutional tradition in the treatment of this right, and the commitment of public institutions for dealing with challenges in the implementation of international standards in this area, the United Nations High Commissioner (UNHCR) Kosovo, in frame of the project implemented by the Civil Rights Program- Kosovo (CRP/K), has organized a seminar on asylum.
