Refugees from Kosovo Living in Poverty in Serbia: Report (Balkan Insight)

A report by the Serbian Commissariat for Refugees said that many people who were displaced from Kosovo following the 1990s conflict have no income or adequate housing.

The Serbian Commissariat for Refugees on Monday presented a report on the living conditions of refugees from Kosovo in Serbia which said that some 68,500 out of almost 200,000 are socially vulnerable.

Deputy commissioner Svetlana Velimirovic told media in Belgrade that these refugees are considered to be “in need”, meaning they struggle with poor housing and unemployment or have little to no income.
