KOSOVO - Enhancing transparency: Parliament embraces E-Voting system
As the Kosovo Parliament resumed work for its autumn sessions, Assembly members were welcomed this 12 September 2024 by the new state-of-the-art E-Voting system in the Assembly Hall. Funded by the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and implemented by LuxDev, the Luxembourg Development Cooperation Agency, this system promises to enhance transparency and efficiency.
The Speaker of the Assembly of the Republic of Kosovo, Glauk KONJUFCA, inaugurated the system during the opening of the plenary session. Speaker Konjufca expressed his gratitude for continued support from the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, emphasising that this investment is essential to strengthen the Assembly's efforts in increasing transparency.
The Head of Mission of the Embassy of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg in Pristina, H.E. Eric DIETZ, expressed his satisfaction with the investment and reaffirmed Luxembourg's commitment to supporting Kosovo's development processes and democratic governance.

The E-voting system, tailored to Kosovo’s legislation framework and procedures, features a central control unit, chairperson and delegate units, and an integrated voting and language interpretation system. Key features include real-time voting displays, multilingual support, camera control, and advanced security measures.
With this upgrade, the Kosovo Assembly seeks to improve session management and provide seamless, secure, and efficient voting and interpretation services for its members. At the same time, it will enable real-time public access to vote records, thereby improving institutional accountability.
The installation and maintenance of the advanced E-Voting system in the Assembly Hall was implemented by the Sustainable and inclusive growth in Kosovo project, funded by the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and implemented by LuxDev, the Luxembourg Development Cooperation Agency. The project aims to catalyse sustainable economic growth by fostering innovation, inclusivity, and social development in a greener Kosovo. Specifically, the project endeavours to stimulate innovation and both local and foreign investments within a digitally secure and transparent ecosystem.
