Description

The aim of this research paper is to elaborate the issue of the ethics code of Non- Governmental Organizations (now and on NGO) in Kosovo. It is very important for any institution or

organization to have the ethics code and respect it, but in so many transitional countries such as Kosovo, this and so many other issues still remain unsolved. This paper first will introduce a brief historical information about the establishment of NGOs in Kosovo, and then elaborate the main topic, trying to give an answer to the question: To what extent have Kosovar NGOs adopted and implemented the Ethics Code? The major finding of this research is giving answer to the question abovementioned, and the answer is: In most cases, not all NGOs in Kosovo have the ethics code, because they don’t work according to it and no one monitors them or asks from them responsibility for that. The qualitative research methodology was used to gather information about this topic. Descriptive and analytical method was used to arrive at the conclusion of this topic. All the data were taken from official websites of NGOs, official websites of governmental institutions such as Ministry of Public Administration, interviews with professional officials of this field and some data from credible portals.
