FOL Movement begins the implementation of the campaign “FOL’s Week”

Prishtina, 19 May 2014 – Today, FOL Movement began the implementation of the campaign “FOL’s Week,” in several villages of major municipalities in order to identify the needs and advocate about municipal and government investments in these areas.
FOL’s activists, during this campaign, will offer the opportunity to the residents of these areas to make specific requests regarding the investments, and then these requests will be sent to municipalities or certain government sectors and FOL will advocate that these requirements be a priority of the budget planning of these institutions in the future.

Today, FOL Movement visited some villages of Prishtina municipality, and a preliminary investigation shows that there were no investments in the recent years. The residents of the villages Slivove and Llajshevc, told that despite their many request to the municipality and other government institutions for various investments, they never received a response from these institutions and leave alone any investment. According to the residents of these areas there is an immediate need for construction of water supply and sewage system, subsidies on agriculture and livestock, improvement of the electricity network, improvement of road infrastructure by building sidewalks whose lack endangers the safety of residents, investments in education and especially preschool program startup.

FOL Movement during this week will visit the villages of Peja municipality on May 20, 2014; Mitrovica Municipality on May 21, 2014, Ferizaj Municipality onMay 22, 2014 and Kamenica municipality on 23 May 2014.
