Brief Description
The joint programme titled 'Strengthening Digital Transformation in Kosovo' aims to leverage digitalization as a catalyst for sustainable development, addressing challenges such as low digital literacy and fragmented systems, while focusing on empowering marginalized groups and enhancing capacities in key sectors like education and agriculture.
The programme focuses on leveraging digital transformation in Kosovo to promote sustainable development and enhance the capacities of key sectors, particularly education and agriculture. It creates a Digital Development Profile, supports a government-led Digital Agriculture Programme, and strengthens the Ministry of Education's capacity for digital education reform. The initiative targets marginalized groups, including small-scale farmers and rural women, ensuring inclusive benefits. With approximately 500 government officials and 362,700 farmers as direct beneficiaries, the programme significantly contributes to advancing SDGs, particularly in digital connectivity, education, and food systems, ultimately enhancing climate resilience and fostering economic growth.
