Video Transcript
“During my great grandmother’s time, the family’s property only belonged to the men, and was only inherited by boys.”
“This situation has not changed much in my grandmother’s time. This was the only property she received from her family when she got married,”
“and it all fit in one suitcase.”
“In my mother’s lifetime, things started to change.”
“Because of her education and employment, she was able to buy property in her own name or to co-own the property with my father.”
“However, she still wasn’t able to inherit.”
“Today, girls’ and women’s equal rights to own and inherit property should be guaranteed.”
“Nobody can deny my right to inherit.”
“We are all equal! Akil and I have equal rights.”
“I meant to property.”
“It’s true. Having equal rights to property empowers women economically.”
“Protection of these rights enables and ensures sustainability and economic development for all.”
“Kosovo and all of us are proud of our girls.”
“We have a legislation that guarantees the equality of men and women in inheritance and every facet of life.”
“We are working hard for inheritance to be equal in practice.”
“The Constitution of the Republic of Kosovo guarantees equal rights for all, without any difference.”
“The right to property is guaranteed for both men and women.”
“Use this right.”
