The residents of the village maintain strong community ties and often engage in joint activities to improve well-being and provide mutual support. The local economy is primarily based on agriculture and livestock farming. Crops such as corn and wheat are cultivated, along with vegetables like tomatoes, peppers, and potatoes. Livestock includes animals such as chickens, cows, and sheep. Women play a key role in the household economy, particularly in processing agricultural and livestock products.

To address this reality, the project “Decision-making through Dialogue: Improving Rural Life through Advocacy of Interest Groups”, implemented by the Instituti Demokraci për Zhvillim (D4D) with the support of the regional project “SMART Balkans–Civil Society for Shared Values in the Western Balkans”, aims to promote a new approach to policymaking.
