The board of the Albanian Scientific Community in Sweden |
At the initiative of Ambassador Shkëndije Geci Sherifi, today, under the auspices of the Embassy of Kosovo in Stockholm, in a formal session was established the "Albanian Scientific Community Network" in Sweden. This network includes professors, researchers, lecturers, and researchers from all Albanian regions of different academic profiles working in different universities in Sweden. The network aims at interaction, academic exchange, development of professional and social contacts where, as a platform will serve the Embassy of Kosovo in Stockholm.
This network, among others, will contribute to the connection of Kosovo with academic circles in Sweden and beyond. Within this network, it is planned to organize round tables, discussions, symposia, meetings, conferences, and various academic forums which will have a positive impact not only on Kosovo but also on scientific work in general.
