Grateful & looking forward 2 future!

Participation is not a static right but a process of becoming, shaped by ongoing negotiations of power, recognition & belonging. Its effectiveness depends not only on 👧👦’s opportunities to express their views but also on the accountability of institutions to create those spaces

[Save the Children Kosova/o @SCinKosovo_]

The first European Child Participation Fair in Brussels brought together 70+ practitioners & youth to make participation real.

🔹 83% of Kosovo children want more influence
🔹 Only 9% consulted

💬 Nothing for children, without children.

Wrapped up an inspiring journey at #YoungBSF & @BledStratForum where conversations stretched from values & narratives, the dialectical process of shaping & being shaped by them, to deeper reflections on climate, inequality, democracy, & resilience.
Let’s keep the dialogue alive.

[Trina Hoti @trinahoti]

In a great discussion with diverse stakeholders, we launched the Manual on the Functioning of Child-Led Municipal Assemblies.
As we launch this manual, we stress the need for greater municipal ownership—key to institutionalizing CLMAs.

On this #WorldChildrensDay, I had the pleasure to present the @SCinKosovo_ Young Voices 2024 report, capturing children's perceptions & feelings on quality education, mental & sexual health, safety, climate change, & gender equality.
These findings demand change & action.

[Trina Hoti @trinahoti]

Marked 10 years of the Respect Our Rights (ROR) child-led group—a journey of advocacy & impact. 🥳
Having been part of organizing this event & also joining my fellow ex-members on a panel, I felt inspired on how far we’ve come.
Here’s to a future where 👧👦’s voices lead the way!

[Trina Hoti @trinahoti]

Had the pleasure to attend the #WorldForumforDemocracy with the 22nd cohort of @ShkollaPolitike, diving into meaningful discussions on democracy. Connecting with 🇽🇰’s Consulate in Strasbourg & visiting the European Court of Human Rights highlighted the depth of this experience.

Participating in the European Summer Academy 2024 has been an incredible experience, covering topics from U.S. presidential elections to gender & security issues.
The opportunity to visit NATO & EU institutions & exchange ideas with 👩🧑 from the WBs provided invaluable insights.

Great to join @sbunker to dive into books from the social sciences! Had an engaging conversation with @gselaci about Anthony Giddens' 'The consequences of modernity'. Check out the full discussion below 👇

📚Ardhja e modernitetit i atribuohet, para së gjithash, Revolucionit industrial, i cili ka sjellë një proces të ndryshimeve rrënjësore shoqërore që quhen me termin “modernizim”. #Lexime

Excited to share my new role at @SCinKosovo_ as a Technical Expert in Child Rights Governance!
From my beginnings as a kid-advocate, I'm happy to continue working professionally in this field to create a world where good governance assures the rights of every child.

Glad that this year I experienced the campaign working behind the scenes w/ @unwomenkosovo team.

[Trina Hoti @trinahoti]

2030 is near, and that means that it's time to turn the #SDGs into action.
Glad to contribute to the Transforming Education group session, among other engaging discussions at the Kosovo SDG Transformation Agenda Conference today.

[Trina Hoti @trinahoti]

Among w/ architects & sociologists from @fh_dortmund & @Rektorati, we successfully rethought the Uni of Prishtina’s campus, infusing life through dance & enhancing public spaces with greenery. 💡🌱
Celebrated our intensive urban perception experience from this summer via Zoom 🙂

[Trina Hoti @trinahoti]

Gathered in Tirana with @UN_Women family & a large number of youth activists, it was a pleasure to be a part of the launch of the new report "Voices of YOUth” & share my insights on the importance of having sustainable empowerment of both already empowered youth & those who lack.

[Trina Hoti @trinahoti]

When I remember my 1st training on children's rights as a 13-year-old, the first question asked to us was how well we knew our rights.
Throughout my journey as an advocate & mentor I’ve witnessed an increase of awareness, & I'm glad that this book will expand it further.
