During this time, contributors put their efforts into creating encyclopedic articles about various villages in Albania and Kosovo.

On February 6th, an offline editathon was organized in both Kosovo and Albania, bringing people together to write about villages in our two countries. Special participants this time were activists from the Rural Youth Hub in Albania organization and efforts of the Roskovec Municipality in Albania for their initiatives aimed at integrating young people into rural society.

As we celebrate the success of this campaign, we also look forward to continuing our efforts to promote awareness and appreciation of the village heritage.

Some statistics from the overall campaign:

  • Editors: 29
  • Wikipedia: 56 articles edited/ created
