The Kosovar Institute for Research and Development of Politics (KIPRED) at the conference held today in Mitrovica with the mayors and representatives of the South Mitrovica region's municipal municipalities, representatives of the Kosovo Police and civil society will present “Prophylin Socio Economic Commissions of South Mitrovica region”.

To that end, The KIPRED has summed up data on population structure and demographic movements, on the level and structure of education, culture and sports, the extent of information technology, the religious structure, including the number of objects and religious clergy, violent extremism, criminalism, the structure of the population in economic activity, municipal budgets and the support they offer for youth activities, municipalities in South Mitrovica, Vushtare, and Scytheright.

The data shows that, with the exception of the South Mitrovica municipality, most of the population of the 15-29-year age group of municipalities in this region live in rural parts of these municipalities. The highest level of education has the South Mitrovica municipality, then comes the Vushtrria and Skyeraj Community, which remains the lowest in the region. The South Mitrovica municipality has solid cultural and sports infrastructure for young people, while in the municipalities of Vushtrri and Svilaj, this infrastructure is significantly weaker. As for the religious structure, the absolute majority of residents in these municipalities (99%) have been declared to belong to Islamic faith. R.
