The Qemal Stafa Foundation continues its participation in the Progressive Leadership Program, which builds on previous similar programs of the Friedrich Ebert Stiftung (FES), with tailored curricula that include two intensive and interactive workshops combining theoretical presentations and practical skills for representatives of youth organizations of progressive political parties and civil society activists from eight countries in the region: Serbia, Montenegro, Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, North Macedonia, Slovenia and Croatia. The 2022 Progressive Leadership Program focused on the theme “Regional Cooperation for Peace and Security.”
Around 25 participants, including participants from the Qemal Stafa Foundation, had the opportunity to participate in trainings that mainly addressed the development of negotiations based on arguments, power and exchange. Participants also participated in negotiation simulation games (Neutrality Vs Collective Security) replicating possible situations in the Western Balkans Region.
This second module of the program also included discussions on political issues related to security in Europe and the Western Balkans region. The second module of the program took place in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina on September 22-26.
