  • assess the needs of youth with disabilities in the employment context in Kosovo;
  • identify the gaps that are hindering the inclusion of youth with disabilities in the labour market;
  • investigate how youth with disabilities can advance towards the potential gradual approximation with the labour market needs in our country;
  • access the availability of the potential employers to employ and accommodate persons with disabilities in the work places;
  • to define how the labour market can improve the access of youth with disabilities.
