Ambassador of the Republic of Kosovo in Dhaka Lulzim Pllana on Wednesday signed a Memorandum of Cooperation with the Association for Socio-Economic Advancement of Bangladesh executive director, Mahfuja Khanam, aimed at supporting educational initiatives for Rohingya refugee children in Cox’s Bazar camps.

The MoC was signed in the presence of Bangladesh foreign ministry Myanmar Wing director general Md Kamruzzaman, said a press release issued by the Embassy of Kosovo in Dhaka.


‘Through this partnership, the Republic of Kosovo will provide a financial contribution of 5,000 EUR to support ASEAB’s efforts in improving learning conditions for Rohingya children by supplying school benches, bags, and water pots across community learning centres in Cox’s Bazar.

Ambassador Pllana reaffirmed the Republic of Kosovo’s solidarity with the government and the people of Bangladesh in their ongoing humanitarian response to the Rohingya crisis.

He underlined the importance of education in fostering hope, dignity, and resilience among displaced children.

‘Kosovo stands in solidarity with Bangladesh and the international community in supporting the Rohingya people. Education is not only a fundamental right but also a bridge to hope and resilience for children whose lives have been uprooted by conflict,’ said ambassador Pllana during the ceremony. 

This initiative reflects the shared commitment of Kosovo and Bangladesh to humanitarian values, education, and international cooperation, and further strengthens the already existing friendly and constructive relations between the two countries, the release mentioned.
