Looking For Kosovo Contacts

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.

Hope this helps.

Terry

Hi Bryan

I recently returned from Kosovo……….If you need some good advice start with the photographers at a local newspaper Gazetta Express. I will add there LS profiles here so you can contact them directly.
