Environmental Research Report for Kosovo (under UNSCR 1244) indicates that Kosovo has inherited a large number of environmental problems, accumulated for decades as a consequence of uncontrolled use of natural and mineral resources, high density of the population, and the presence of economic activities with a strong environmental impact, such as agriculture, electricity and mining, and urban dwelling coupled with high level of pollution. The tremendous environmental threatens and degradation are the main reason to established research resources to solve environmental problems in order to improve, protect and restore natural and man-made environment in Kosovo.

The final Strategic Research Agenda identified a set of environmental research priorities for Kosovo selected from different environmental sectors and thematic issues driven by Environmental Strategy for Kosovo and Kosovo Environmental Action Plan 2006-2010  developed by the Ministry of Environment and Spatial Planning. The environment Strategic Research Agenda is intended to contribute to the shaping of future EU-World Bank  research co-operation through relevant European Commission research policies and funding programs in a way that meets the interests and actual needs of regional environmental research area.
