Kosovo institutional representatives and international officials called for raising the awareness among the population in Kosovo and policy-makers not to discriminate against people with a different sexual orientation. Head of the EU Office in Kosovo, Samuel Zbogar, said that as in many other European countries, members of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transsexual (LGBT) community in Kosovo continue to be marginalized. He said that politicians and leaders should do more for this category of society. “I believe you can do more to have a more tolerant society with rights for all groups in the society that are vulnerable. Promoting tolerance should not be done only by the civil society activists. They also need your help,” said Zbogar in a conference organised in Pristina by the Kosovo Prime Minister’s Office for Good Governance to mark the International Day against Homophobia and Transphobia.
