UNMIK-EU Gjilane
Regional Office
The European Union in Gjilane Region
UNMIK's European Union  Pillar  formally  established its  office  in   the  Gjilane  region   in   July 2000. Gjilane sits  in  the southern   corner  of   Kosovo  with   Serbia  to  the   east  and   the  FYR  of  Macedonia  to the south. It  is geographically the   largest region  within Kosovo. It's proximity  to Serbia  has  ensured  that   a   large  Serbian  population, approximately
Gjilani City 40,0000   has  remained   in  the  region. As   a  result  the area   has  suffered   from  ethnic  tensions. Gjilan/Gnjilane also has  a  small  Roma   grouping.  Considerable   efforts have been made to provide  a safe and secure environment for  all of the inhabitants of the region. Gjilan/Gnjilane  and Ferizaj/ Urosevac   are   the  region's   two   major   cities. Incidentally Ferizaj/Urosevac  is the only city in  the  world in which a Mosque  and Orthodox Church  are  located on the same  site. UNMIK   has  placed   particular   emphasis on   devloping    inclusive.  The    remaing     muncipalities
making up the region are in Kamenica/Kamenice,Viti/Vitina
Shterpce / Strpce,  Kacanik   and   Novoberde / Novobrdo
UNMIK   has  placed  particular  emphasis  on  developing inclusive   structures   and    maintains   ongoing  dialogue
with  all  ethnic  groups. Gjilane, like  the  rest  of  Kosovo, suffered  not  only  from  the ravages  of war but also   decades of  neglect.Given the ethnic mix of the area the challenges facing  the  European  Union  Pillar of  UNMIK  in reconstructing the  economy   and  providing   for ongoing development  are  not  inconsiderable. However, the  EU  in  Gjilane  is  making  a  positive contribution  to  addressing  the  needs  of  the region.Particular emphasis  has been placed  on  improving  public utilities, developing  the business  environment, physical  reconstruction of  property   and   transport  links, and  developing a  transparent  fiscal  regime. The EU Pillar  in Gjilane  will concentrate  during 2001 on the Commercialisation  of State  and Socially Owned   Enterprises  (SSOEs),  continuing   to  encourage  economic  cooperation    between   ethnic   groups, the development  of sustainable   solid   waste   disposal   facilities, improved municipal financial  accountability, better targeting of housing reconstruction for  the  most vulnerable, increased revenue collection for public utility services.
