Looking For Kosovo Contacts

Wed, 12 Mar 2008 12:53:53 +0000

i'm taveling to Mitrovica Kosovo on the 19th of August and will be photographing youth from both sides of the River Ibar. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas/contacts/advice in terms of organizations to contact. I've made the rounds on reliefweb.org and some others, but would appreciate any advice.... best, bryan

Bryan, Try Mercy Corps, http://www.mercycorps.org. I've no up to date names or numbers as it was 1999 when I did a comission for them but they were really good to work with. You could also try http://www.hopeandaiddirect.org.uk/ who I'm sure will put you in touch with a local contact. Also lightstalkers member Andrew Testa is based in Kosovo and was helpful when I was doing my disertation at university. http://www.lightstalkers.org/andrewtesta Hope this helps. Cheers, Terry
