    Elton Skendaj

    Elton Skendaj studies how domestic and international partners can strengthen democratic institutions, foster active public engagement, uphold the rule of law, reduce corruption, and use nonviolent means to prevent and resolve conflicts.

    He is on the faculty of the Government Department at Georgetown University, where he serves as the Director of the Democracy and Governance M.A. Program. He is a leadership coach who helps executives grow in purpose and joy in business and nonprofit sectors. His first book, Creating Kosovo: International Oversight and the Making of Ethical Institutions (Cornell University Press and Wilson Center Press, 2014) examines the role of international actors in building effective state bureaucracies and democratic institutions in postwar Kosovo. His research has been published in peer-reviewed journals such as Global Governance, Problems of Postcommunism, and Journal of Intervention and Statebuilding.
