  • An informal group, 'Support for KM Students,' is calling on citizens in Kosovo to register as election monitors for Serbia's upcoming elections.
  • Kosovo Serbs have been unable to vote in Serbian elections within Kosovo for several years, instead traveling to central Serbia.
  • The group is using Instagram to solicit applications, directing interested individuals to a QR code for registration.

An informal group known as 'Support for KM Students' has launched an appeal via Instagram, urging citizens residing in Kosovo to volunteer as election monitors for the upcoming Serbian elections. This initiative aims to facilitate participation in the electoral process for a community that has faced logistical hurdles.

For several years, Serb citizens in Kosovo have been unable to cast their ballots within their territory during Serbian elections. Instead, they have had to travel to designated polling stations in central Serbia, located near towns such as Kurลกumlija, Raลกka, and Vranje, to exercise their civic duty.

The 'Support for KM Students' group is leveraging social media to streamline the registration process. They have provided a QR code on their Instagram profile, which interested individuals can scan to access a link for signing up as monitors. The group's message encourages active participation, stating, 'Students are winning. Get involved!'

Students are winning. Get involved!
