Kosovo’s Minister without portfolio and President of Regional Women’s Lobby (RWL), participated in the “Women of Kosovo work together for European integration” regional conference organized by RWL, the Finish Embassy and supported by UN WOMEN. In her opening remarks, Tahiri said the role of women is on the rise and that women contribute to the development and democratization of society at national, regional and global levels. But according to Tahiri, the role of women in decision-making and peace processes is not yet at the right level. According to her, empowering women in political decision-making will be a long journey. Tahiri said that women of Kosovo should work together for women’s agenda and Kosovo’s European agenda, and urged the EU to give more space to gender equality in progress reports for countries that are in the process of European integration. Tahiri also criticized the involvement of women MPs in violent protests in Kosovo, saying such acts damage the image of women politicians in Kosovo.
