About CBM: 

Community Building Mitrovica (CBM) is a local non-governmental organization (NGO) operating in the field of peace and community building in the wider region of Mitrovica, northern municipalities of Kosovo. The overall aim of CBM is to facilitate contact and dialogue between citizens in the whole of Mitrovica municipality. CBM’s staff consists of devoted citizens – both Serbs and Albanians – who grew up in this region and want to restore the previous confidence and even friendship that war and politics have destroyed. 

By supporting many concrete projects which address the direct needs of the local communities, CBM contributes in a modest way to this aim. The work of the past years has gained the organization a strong reputation on both sides of the Ibar. Fields in which CBM works are: media, culture, youth, women, minorities, dialogue, and return of refugees and IDPs (Internally Displaced Persons). CBM’s projects are open to members of all communities living in Mitrovica and wider. CBM often cooperates with other NGOs, helps out with local initiatives, and works with local governmental institutions and international organizations in order to initiate, develop, and implement activities, for the benefit of the communities, in Mitrovica and wider. 

About the project: 

The “Resilient and Inclusive Community Program” is funded by Global Community Engagement and Resilience Fund (GCERF) and is implemented in consortium of two organizations, Advocacy Training and Resource Center (ATRC) and Community Building Mitrovica (CBM). The program aims to: strengthen central and local level institutional operational and knowledge capacities, strengthen operational and knowledge capacities of Local CSO-s to work on prevention of violent extremism (PVE), reduce youth vulnerability towards violent extremism by increasing the sense of purpose and social cohesion, raise community awareness and acceptance towards marginalized groups and other targeted beneficiaries. The program also places a higher emphasis on preventing right wing and ethno-nationalist extremism in the region of Mitrovica, to ensure equal opportunities, also to reduce any risk of stigmatization of one community or ethnicity over other communities and ethnicities.
