In June 2002, Mercy-USA successfully completed the construction of a ten-classroom primary school in the village of Likovac/Likoc in central Kosovo. The school, named Emin Duraku, includes kindergarten to ninth grade and is serving approximately 500 students from Likovac/Likoc and five other surrounding villages in the municipality of Srbica/Skenderaj.
