SUMMARY:Heartstone: KFOR AND KOSOVO +25 Event
DESCRIPTION:On June 12th\, the photo-documentary exhibition\, ‘KFOR and Kosovo +25’\, is at the centre of an extraordinary event being staged at Manchester Central Library as part of Manchester’s Festival of Libraries.\n\n\nProduced by internationally acclaimed photographer\, Nick Sidle\, covering the period 2000-1\, in the aftermath of the 1999 Kosova war\, the exhibition tells an uplifting visual story of the resilience of ordinary people recovering from a period of horrific ethnic cleansing and the role of the KFOR peacekeepers in bringing the stability and security from which peace followed. Many in the Greater Manchester region supported at the time with funds\, blankets\, toys and other items. \nThis event will bring together online for the first time some of the civilians pictured in the images\, who have been located 25 years later in Kosova\, and others who were part of this period in the North West and other parts of the UK. In Kosova\, the event is taking shape from the National Library of Kosova opened by Kosova’s Minister for Culture\, Saranda Bogujevci\, herself a survivor of the Podujeva Massacre and one of those evacuated to Manchester in 1999. \nAdmission is free and there is no booking required\, but please come early to be secure of a place at this event. \nHeader Photo by ©Nick Sidle.
