Measuring and Improving Citizens' Understanding of the Justice System - Survey of Attitudes Towards the Judicial System Among Court Users in Kosovo

This report details the findings from a first-of-its-kind survey of citizens in Kosovo who have filed a case with the country’s district or municipal courts. USAID commissioned this survey to gauge court users’ attitudes on a variety of issues dealing with the courts specifically and the judicial system more broadly. This survey was conducted through face-to-face interviews between August 2005 and October 2005 with 403 persons who have had experience with Kosovo’s court system. More specifically, interviews were conducted with 124 criminal defendants, 36 victims in criminal cases, 25 lawyers who represented victims, 99 civil case defendants and 119 plaintiffs in civil cases.

Measuring and Improving Citizens' Understanding of the Justice System - Public Opinion Survey in Kosovo

This report details the findings from a public opinion survey in Kosovo. The survey was conducted through face-to-face interviews with 1,226 respondents throughout Kosovo between 08 and 26 August 2005. This data has been weighted to be representative of the resident population of Kosovo by region and urban/rural distribution. The objective of the survey was to measure the Kosovo residents’ perceptions and knowledge of the justice sector, including specific legal issues, actors and the court system. USAID’s Justice System Reform Activity in Kosovo conducted a similar survey in 2004, and data from the two surveys is compared in this report to identify trends in the opinion environment in Kosovo. The margin of error for the 2005 survey is plus/minus 2.8%.
