Description
KRCT together with the “Be My Voice” platform partners established “The Corner of Courage” in the Ministry of Justice, and the Kosovo Embassies in Brussels, Washington and the British Embassy in Kosovo. These dedicated corners contain artworks and handmade jewellery done by survivors of the sexual violence during the war. These artistic spaces aim to further contribute to better recognition, access to their rights and proper inclusion in transitional justice and dealing with the past processes in the country and beyond. Be My Voice is a coalition of NGOs including the KRCT, the Women Rights Center, Medica Kosova and Medica Gjakova. The platform aims to represent and advance the rights of survivors of wartime sexual violence in Kosovo.
