Kosovo law on women’s property rights is very advanced, but its non-implementation in the practice is an issue, participants in a debate organized in EU Info Centre in Mitrovica North agreed, Kontakt plus radio reported.

At a round table on the topic of advancing gender equality and empowering women as precondition to sustainable development organised as part of government's activities to mark 8 March, International Women’s Day, Prime Minister of Kosovo Ramush Haradinaj noted the unequal treatment of women in inheriting property. He said his own father left his property only to sons and this is something that should not happen in Kosovo. “We as the people of Mother Teresa ought to lead in gender equality,” Haradinaj said.
