World gives up coal, Kosovo invests in it

The Riinvest Institute has estimated that the three main pillars of sustainable development are the economy, society and environment, education for sustainable development, as they help students develop skills and gain knowledge, which help them take action for themselves.

Burim Ejupi of the Indep Institute, which was part of this debate, said before students that for sustainable development, there is also the economy, which, according to him, has strongly opposed the T project. The new C Kosova, because there is no stability.

He has argued opposition, saying the whole world invests in renewable energy, while Kosovo aims to invest in this coal sector.

Unfortunately, the Government of Kosovo has only one agenda, the new Kosovo thermal power plant, i.e. The whole world is removed from coal, we invest in coal, because that's how they see economic development. Or on asphalt, unfortunately. We've invested millions of euros in asphalt and finally when you see it, what? Where are the results of the asphalt? We as civil society have the part to attend, and you in education should have learning programs, to prepare. So, to think of something that will come on social issues for a pension, social well-being for health insurance, unfortunately we don't have health insurance”, Ejupi said, Kosovapress reported.

Meanwhile, Edon Qesari, professor in Riinvest, has said that these three major ideas -- economy, society and environment -- are intended to form economic policies and decision making, which promote social developments.

The “is a form of awareness that for citizens of a normal country should start at the youngest age. Today it is a little absurd to still talk about knowledge and boundaries in the field of knowledge. Knowledge is neither public nor private, nor Albanian, Kosovar or European, but it is all of them. The same is true in terms of sustainable development”, Qesari said.

Diana Lekaj, dean of the economics department at Riinvest College, has said sustainable development helps young people make decisions for their better future.

The purpose of today's debate is to sustain sustainable development, aiming to help you build skills, so that when you make decisions in the future, take into account the ones that affect the realm of life and the next generation for a quality life”, Lekaj said.

While students are also interested in the environmental situation, which posed questions about the air and the polluted environment in Kosovo.
