Kosovo is a dynamic destination where tradition meets modern creativity, and its vibrant calendar of events reflects the country’s youthful energy and rich cultural roots. Among the standout happenings is Sunny Hill Festival in Pristina, a world-class music event founded by global pop icon Dua Lipa, which brings top international artists and thousands of fans to the capital each summer. Also gaining traction is NGOM Fest in Prizren, where music, nature, and activism come together in a unique blend, set against the stunning backdrop of the Sharr Mountains. For cinema lovers, the Dokufest International Documentary and Short Film Festival is a must-attend — turning the historic city of Prizren into a lively hub of film screenings, workshops, and late-night riverfront gatherings.
Kosovo also proudly celebrates its deep-rooted cultural heritage through events that honor its history and traditions. The Etno Fest in Kukaj village revives traditional rural life with folk music, artisanal crafts, and local cuisine in an authentic mountain setting. Meanwhile, Anibar Animation Festival in Peja showcases the power of animated storytelling, bringing together artists and audiences from across Europe. Whether you’re drawn by the sounds of global music, the depth of Balkan tradition, or the energy of emerging creatives, Kosovo’s events offer a fresh and unforgettable way to experience its unique identity and warm hospitality.

Motivation
Youth unemployment rates are particularly high across Kosovo and region. We believe that through education and training in transferable and entrepreneurial skills young people will be better equipped to compete for jobs, become self-employed and contribute to the innovative and competitive ability of a employer’s organization. The development of transferable skills requires new creative ways of teaching and learning, and inclusion of practical world experience. This workshop aims to describe entrepreneurship as a process that goes beyond the identification and teaching of competences. Provides information that knowledge acquisition and development of attitudes and intentions are fundamental to the process of entrepreneurship and the expression of entrepreneurship behavior and outcomes.
Therefore, the aim of our College is to organize a workshop on “Entrepreneurship as a career choice of Kosovar youth” as part of activities during Global Entrepreneurship Week 2017.
