Our approach

As a local organizations, the Kosovo Foundation for Open Society collaborates with civil society and public institutions to push forward public policies and strengthen democracy in Kosovo. To achieve this, the Foundation develops and implements its own projects as well as supports organizations and individuals committed to building an open society. Similarly to OSF, KFOS works closely together with organizations and individuals to build long-term relationships and advocate for common strategic goals. It also uses various paths to find collaborators: from contacting organizations and individuals directly to open calls. KFOS plays a pro-active role in identifying partners and is actively engaged in initiating collaborative efforts with organizations and individuals with the purpose of creating wider coalitions.
