'Internally displaced' October 2002. Kosovo

Film on Kosovo and Metohija by Ninoslav Randjelovic Internally displaced (18 minutes) Since mid-1999 over 230.000 Serbs and other non-Albanians were driven out from Kosovo and Metohia despite the presence of the international military (KFOR) and police force (UNMIK) in the region. Most of them have been accommodated in Serbia proper, either in collective centers or in some form of private arrangement. Their basic survival has often solely depended on humanitarian programs of the international community. However, with the political changes and greater social stability in the region, came also a gradual reduction in the scope of humanitarian activities. The largest humanitarian organizations have closed down their programs, so finding solutions to hardships that internally displaced people face daily has been one of the biggest challenges for a government of Serbia.
