Description

In recent years, a number of nations have had their education services and schools disturbed by internal dissension and/or war. Therefore, there is increasing professional and public interest in the redevelopment of education in such nations and in ways through which stability may be restored to schools, schooling, and the administration of education services. Examples of successful restoration can provide insights into how this can be done. The state of special education in Kosovo after the establishment of the United Nations Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK) as an interim administration is described as an example of how this was attempted in one "recovering nation." (We use the official UNMIK spelling of place-names throughout this article.) Specifically, the roles of its Department of Education and Science (DES), its international and Kosovar staff, and Kosovar school personnel in re-establishing education for children who are deaf and vision impaired are described as examples of how this was attempted in Kosovo.
