These are not small problems and they affect the museum's public image. They are unclear on how to improve the museum role as a partner in the cultural development of the country, beyond the very basic fact that the population comes to the museum to observe the material culture of the country. First, the financial means are very scarce for the construction of the National Museum in Eritrea, or the reconstruction of the Museum of Kosovo. There is little foreign aid aimed at museums. The emergency funds available in the first 14 months in Kosovo were aimed at reconstruction of infrastructure.
Museums attract little help for now.
The situation is even more desperate in Eritrea. Kosovar museum staff has had ten years of lack of periodical upgrading of their skills. Many worked in the museums under Serbian directors and staff and found themselves in secondary positions. In Eritrea, there are no specialists in museography that could prepare the master plan for the museum. The condition of the buildings is also a problem.
