On the occasion of April 14, the Memorial Day for Survivors of Sexual Violence during the Kosovo War, Women in Black, the Autonomous Women’s Center, and the Youth Initiative for Human Rights are organizing a street action on April 14, 2026, at 12:00 at Republic Square in Belgrade.
For the Memorial Day for Survivors of Sexual Violence during the Kosovo War, Kosovo institutions—on the initiative of civil society—symbolically chose April 14, as on that day in 1999, Vasfije Krasniqi-Goodman, who was sixteen at the time, was raped by members of the Serbian police. She was the first woman to publicly speak out about the crime of sexual violence during the war in Kosovo.
