This year’s Impact Week Albania was a great success, thanks to a dedicated team of organizers and coaches, who had mostly returned already for the second time! We trained 23 coaches and welcomed 58 students who explored important local topics through four specialized tracks: Sustainable Tourism, Food Industry, Vjosa Valley, and Agriculture.
The standout achievement was the winning team’s app for local farmers, which earned them a summer internship with the city. Additionally, an exceptional participant was offered a job at Caravan Horse Riding. Our diverse team—from Austria to Uzbekistan—brought a wealth of perspectives, enhancing the program. By translating materials into Albanian, we made sure everyone could fully participate and benefit. We are excited to see what impact is being created in the long run!
