Kosovo Early Warning Report, May 2008: Fast Facts

The latest report from the Kosovo Early Warning System Project, released in May 2008, shows that development issues attract ever more attention from the population of Kosovo. Social issues such as unemployment, poverty, electricity and prices are considered the main problem by more and more Kosovo citizens after the Declaration of Independence by the Kosovo Assembly. However, trust in security institutions has fallen among Kosovo Serbs. The Kosovo Early Warning System Project is a component of UNDP’s regional early warning framework.

The Silent Majority Speaks: Snapshots of Today and Visions of the Future of Bosnia and Herzegovina

Oxford Research International, on behalf of the United Nations Development Programme, with the support of the Royal Netherlands Government, has carried out the most comprehensive and thoroughgoing examination of the social and political health of BiH ever undertaken. This research places particular emphasis on the outcomes of the resettlement process, it provides a barometer of the views of all BiH citizens. Its purpose was both to take stock some eleven years after the end of the conflict, and to seek out a consensus, if one could be found, on where BiH goes from here.

Democratising Security in Transition States

Findings, recommendations and resources from the UNDP/DCAF Roundtable for CIS Parliamentarians, Prague October 2005. Democratic control of the security sector enhances human security; parliaments can play a strategic role in enhancing security sector reforms by making security services more accountable. Given a legacy of non-transparency and the strong position of the responsible ministries in the region, developing parliamentary capacities is critical to ensuring effective democratic oversight, resolving conflicts and reinforcing human rights protection. This publication, jointly edited by UNDP Bratislava Regional Centre and DCAF (Geneva Centre for the Democratic Control of Armed Forces), is based on recommendations from a 2005 CIS Parliamentary Roundtable and is intended to be a substantive tool for parliamentarians, civil society institutions and donor governments interested in furthering democratization of the security sector.

Building Bridges Across the Green Line: A guide to intercultural communication in Cyprus

In this guide, Benjamin Broome, a Professor at Arizona State University, explores the dynamics of intercultural communication in unofficial contacts between Greek and Turkish Cypriots across the Green Line in Cyprus. The guide provides an overview of efforts over the past three decades to promote cooperation across the buffer zone, with an examination of the obstacles confronted by those involved in the projects. Drawing on his experience with conducting bi-communal workshops over the past decade, the author makes practical suggestions for establishing trust, engaging in dialogue, and for cooperation. Finally, the guide discusses the social and psychological impact of cross-community contact and its importance in preparing for life after a settlement.
