The Slovene Human Rights' Ombudsman visits Kosovo

From 20-22 February representatives of the Slovene Human Rights' Ombudsman were invited by colleagues on a working visit to Kosovo. The director of Human Rights' Ombudsman's expert services Tone Dolčič and independent expert associate Ivan Šelih gave a presentation to their counterparts from Kosovo on how the Human Rights' Ombudsman operates within the state administration system in Slovenia, also outlining the legislative framework and rules of operation. Their presentation went on to cover the Ombudsman's operational methods, particularly in the area of limiting personal freedoms, political procedures and the health system. The visit of the Slovene representatives was seen as useful contribution to the development of the relatively new institution for the protection of human rights in Kosovo.
