Kosovo citizens. These shortcomings make Kosovar citizens even more vulnerable, especially in an environment where political stability is at its worst, and where early elections seem to plague almost every central government mandate, making Kosovo's progress even more unfeasible. To give a clearer picture about the state of Kosovar citizens, in terms of human security, it was worth mentioning a few examples. According to research, Kosovo's citizens su er"from a lack of employment opportunities, a lack of job security, and a lack of the financial means to ensure that their basic needs (food, shelter, clothing, access to education and healthcare, etc.) are met"(Coleman, Human security in Kosovo: The other side of National Security?, 2016). The threats to economic security in Kosovo are further exacerbated. Despite recent attempts for improvements, in looking at the condition of health care in Kosovo, research shows that there are still many obstacles that the majority of citizens face when needing medical care. The high out of pocket cost of health care is one of the most predominate challenges. The government of Kosovo having failed to implement the Health Insurance Fund, around 85% of citizens remain without health insurance. The harshest e ects are su ered by those already on the poverty margins who end up paying for unexpected health care costs. This, as a result has an impoverishing e ect on the poorest of the poor. The combination of the high cost of healthcare and other challenges in getting su cient health care renders the people of Kosovo and Kosovo itself even more vulnerable. A lower standard of health may be correlated to a weaker economy, and a population that is less able to exercise other constitutional given rights(Coleman, Policy Recommendations for Healthcare in Kosovo, 2016). "The high cost of healthcare, especially for those who are most a ected by the weak economy and lack of employment opportunities, further weakens the population and negatively a ects its ability to participate in political, economic, or social life." The government of Kosovo, having acknowledged the need to improve services for the health of its citizens, took initial steps and passed the Law on Health Insurance, but the implementation of such a law has proven to be badly coordinated and has stagnated all together, citizens of Kosovo remaining mostly uninsured and su ering below par health services overall, but especially in regard to early diagnosis capabilities. Despite this, there is a lack of significant public debate about the responsibility of the state to remedy these issues immediately, and the possible consequences of not doing so. The issue of healthcare has not been framed as it relates to the human security and societal security of Kosovo citizens or the overall economic growth of the country(Coleman, Policy Recommendations for Healthcare in Kosovo, 2016; Coleman, Human security in Kosovo: The other side of National Security?, 2016). Countering violent extremism(VE) is unquestionably a vital task for countries around the world, including Kosovo, which has not been immune to the risks and consequences of such a threat. Nonetheless, the approach so far taken by Kosovo, despite many strengths in the Countering Violent Extremism area (CVE) has had serious setbacks in the Prevention of Violent Extremism(PVE) area. This firstly has happened partly due to the fact that as a small country in transition, with young institutions, it faced a complex problem and a new threat and as such had to learn as it went(learning by doing and through mistakes). Secondly, serious setbacks have 11
