Kosovar Centre for Security Studies (KCSS) on 21st of November 2019 held a focus group in the Municipality of Peja on "Promoting and Communicating the Benefits of the Dialogue Facilitated by the EU". The focus group consisted of participants older than 35.

This focus group aimed to stimulate discussion and get the opinions of citizens about the real effect that dialogue has had on the lives of citizens. Apart from measuring the real effect that dialogue has had on citizens' lives, it also aimed to raise awareness about the benefits of this process actively. Through this focus group, the KCSS learned how citizens are informed about Dialogue with Serbia, emerging technical agreements that affect freedom of movement of people and goods, the market, business and employment.

From this focus groups, interesting data were collected that provide fruitful inputs that will assist the KCSS in its research component within the project "Promoting and Communicating Benefits of Dialogue Facilitated by the EU". Likewise, the participants were very pleased since they had the opportunity to discuss with the KCSS team more deeply about the technical dialogue approaches.
