She later gave a public lecture about women in politics, especially in emerging nations.

The ambassador is the head of the diplomatic mission of the Republic of Kosovo in NYC where she is in charge of the Kosovo consulate and liaison with the United Nations. She is an activist who is attempting to empower women in politics, business, and other areas of society.
Kosovo is 95 percent Muslim with about the same land area as Connecticut and has about half that state's population. Kosovo, with its 2,000,000 people, declared its independence in 2008.
