The Aequitas podcast produced by the Center for Affirmative Social Activities – CASA and the KIM Media Group has addressed in a series the lack of open and diverse opportunities for public dialogue on issues affecting ethnic relations in Kosovo. Established as a platform that provides in-depth knowledge and analysis, the Aequitas podcast has presented a video show with multiple discussions on a range of contemporary issues in Kosovo.
The multifaceted discussion was facilitated by an innovative strategy involving two presenters, journalists from the Albanian and Serbian communities of Kosovo. Their aim was to engage in conversations with the respective guests to represent the prevailing views and interests in their communities.
In this way, the audience had the opportunity to understand and confirm a range of opinions and interests on topics affecting ethnic relations in Kosovo, such as the issue of missing persons, the normalization of relations between Serbia and Kosovo, EU integration, cultural heritage and many others.
The project was implemented in partnership between the NGO CASA from North Mitrovica and the NGO KIM media Group from Caglavica, prominent actors in the social and media scene of Kosovo.
The project was funded through the “Our Media” sub-grant scheme, which has provided support for 21 local projects across the Western Balkans.
