BASIC FACTS (cont.) Kosovo declared independence from Serbia on February 17, 2008. The United States recognized Kosovo on February 18, 2008. The UN Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK), has provided support during the transition period, as the European Rule of Law Mission (EULEX), and NATO (KFOR) prepare to supervise Kosovo s independence. Following the end of the war, in 1999, Kosovo's infrastructure and institutions lay in ruins as a result of decades of war and neglected maintenance. More than one-third of the population, lives in poverty, with 15 per cent in extreme poverty. The conditions in the rural areas are worse than in the cities, especially for women, young people and ethnic minorities. Unemployment is very high, with a general rate of 40 per cent, and a rate of 80 per cent among young people. 5
Small Infrastructure for Education in Kosovo (SIEK) 6
Goal: Improved physical space for primary and secondary schools in Kosovo to help the government reduce the number of shifts from three-four to only two by 2011. Partners: Ministry of Education, Science, and Technology (MEST), municipalities, school administrators and maintenance personnel, local construction contractors and manufacturers. Budget Structure: The Small Infrastructure for Education in Kosovo (SIEK) project is a $5,000,000 project. Cost Share: CHF will leverage 44% of the total cost of infrastructure projects completed under SIEK from Kosovo municipalities; the Ministry of Education, Science, and Technology; and other sources. 7
In 2-year period CHF will implement at least 35 projects, including: 17 classroom additions constructed; 18 previously existing but unfinished additions/stories or general renovation projects to improve or add classroom space; and 1 Pilot project for a new green school in a suburban area will be constructed. 8
SIEK is meeting three inter-related objectives: Expanded physical capacity of primary and secondary schools to reduce shifts; Improved condition of primary and secondary school facilities; and Maximized use of local expertise, labor, and materials. 9

Green School 15
Green School Project Green School Project involves developing a pilot school in Pristina, and will be achieved by adhering to three main principles: Increasing energy efficiency through the use of renewable energy technology and energy saving construction concepts, Improving material utilization and decreasing waste in construction by using recycled and sustainable materials, Reducing water consumption by improving methods of capturing and reusing rain and grey water. 16
Green School Pilot Goals Reduce energy consumption and increase energy independence, Provide education about renewable energy and green construction as a component of the building itself as well as part of the curriculum, Promote a healthy learning environment by improving air quality and reducing exposure to toxins, Develop a replicable model for future projects of similar scale 17
