In an effort to help strengthen the educational infrastructure and raise the student experience in the country, the European Union in cooperation with KFW and the WBIF program for the Western Balkans is proudly launching the project “Energy efficient rehabilitation of student dormitories in North Macedonia”. With a firm commitment to nurturing the next generation of students, this initiative heralds a new era of improved living standards and conducive learning environments for students across the country.
The project covers the reconstruction of nine state student dormitories in several cities in North Macedonia.

The third phase will include the homes “Kocho Racin” in Bitola, “Pelagonija” in Skopje, as well as the canteen of “Goce Delchev” in Skopje.
The project “Energy efficient rehabilitation of student dormitories in North Macedonia” is implemented by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of North Macedonia through the support of 20 million euros and a 5 million euro grant through the WBIF Regional Energy Efficiency Program for the Western Balkans (REEP+) of the European Union.
The principle of the reconstruction is holistic, and includes initially changing the plumbing installation in the homes and removing the causes of moisture in the buildings, changing the complete electrical installation and replacing the electrical equipment with the installation of energy-efficient LED lamps, changing the heating installation, complete change of the sanitary facilities and sanitation, production of energy-efficient facades of the buildings and installation of photovoltaics for the production of electricity. The project includes renovating the common rooms for learning and improving the learning environment, increasing the safety of students and protecting the environment.
According to the determined dynamics, the reconstruction of the student dormitories within the project will take place in three phases, and the overall implementation of the project is expected to be completed within 44 months.
