Travel to Europe – Call for Applications

The Youth Initiative for Human Rights continues its journey to Europe. After the success of the project in 2007, 2008 and 2009 where 65 youth were given the opportunity to travel through different European countries and capitals, the YIHR organizes the “Travel to Europe” project again.

This year, the YIHR will provide the same opportunity to 15 of the best students from Kosovar universities. The chosen candidates will get Schengen Visas, Inter-rail tickets, EURO 26 or ISIC student cards, as well as the opportunity to travel around Europe at the routes of their own choice.

The basic criteria for selection are:

* Applicants have to be in the final year of their studies, not older than 26 years (applicants must submit certificate of admission to the final year of studies)

* Average score during studies should be 8,5 or above (applicants must submit certificate of passed exams and average score, issued by the Faculty, as well as a copy of index.)

* Knowledge of foreign languages – English, German, French, Spanish or Italian

Priority will be given to those candidates who have never traveled abroad.

Candidates have to send their applications and required documents by 28 June 2010 or submit them personally at the following address:
