Balkans Group’s new policy report Kosovo’s ProgressBAR in 2021: An 8-dimensional assessment of key policy areas, assesses Kosovo’s advancement in critical policy areas.
Through a monitoring instrument consisting of 8 dimensions: Rule of Law, Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, Democratisation, Economy, Sustainable Development, Education, Health and Good Neighbourly Relations, we aim to better measure Kosovo’s progress and bring more data to the surface. This structure is divided into thirteen (13) indicators and sixty-five (65) sub-indicators, which use means of assessment, means of verification, and sources of verification from a variety of local, regional and international sources. The indicators provide an empirical approach to measuring Kosovo’s advancement in critical policy areas. By comparing the data with 2020, the report measures institutions’ progress in 2021 in form of numbers and percentages.
