Integration of Kosovo in the EU - RESULTS OF THE NATIONAL SURVEY 2023

October 2023

Integration of Kosovo in the European Union: Perceptions of Kosovar Citizens is the next publication of PIPS, in cooperation with Lëvizja FOL, and with the support of the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Kosovo.

The results of this research/survey sheds light on the perceptions of Kosovar citizens on a number of dimensions of the integration process in the EU. The survey offers interesting findings related to the impressions of Kosovars about the future of their state, the preconceived notion of the EU as an opportunity to improve institutions and the quality of daily life, as a 'promised future', the exact distance of which has not become completely clear.

Through this survey, it is possible to understand the perceptions of where Kosovo currently stands in relation to this political, economic and cultural space, compared to specific sectoral areas, as well as who are the local and international actors with the potential to help or block its European path.

The research was organized in 38 municipalities of Kosovo with 1200 respondents, of which 800 Albanians, 200 Serbs and 200 other minorities.
