Short description:
Elvana Shala is a Goodwill Ambassador for Kosovo at the International Human Rights Commission, representing Kosovo’s public diplomacy internationally while also working on human-rights projects for marginalized groups, especially people with disabilities. She visited Vienna for the Zero Project Conference at the UN office and met the Speaker of the Austrian Parliament during an official program. Her appearance in a beret with “UÇK” symbols on Kosovo’s Independence Day triggered major media attention and backlash from Serbian associations and the Serbian UN mission, which she says even asked for her removal from the conference.
