Back to Beder as Professionals
In the framework of the "Back to Beder a Professionals" activity, a conversation was held between graduates and students of the Department of Law. In this meeting were invited Ermal Mema, employed as legal assistant at the Bendo, Legal & Financial studio, Mandrit Kamolli, employed as project assistant at the National Democratic Institute (NDI) and Armando Sina, employed as a lawyer at a law firm "ADCA". During the conversation, the guests explained their experiences as students in Bedër and their engagement in extracurricular activities, which influenced their further training, enabling the continuation of master studies in European countries such as France, England and Italy. They then paused on their work experience by giving students advice and orienting themselves on the steps they need to follow in order to be able to become part of the labor market. The activity was attended by students who established contact with graduates.
THE INSTITUTE FOR RELIGIOUS FREEDOM AND DEMOCRACY
THE INSTITUTE FOR RELIGIOUS FREEDOM AND DEMOCRACY
The Institute for Religious Freedom and Democracy is a three-day training program designed for undergraduate and graduate students from all public and private universities in Albania. It is open for participants from all study programs in, but not limited to, social sciences and humanities. The program will consist of lectures, discussions, student presentations, guest lectures and visits to religious communities and objects of cult.
The project is inspired by the Study of the U.S. Institute on Religious Pluralism in the United States. This is a pilot program that will be transformed into a summer or winter institute for participants from Albania and the region. The goal of this program is to provide the necessary historical and theoretical foundations for the study of religious freedom and democracy, discuss specifics of the situation in Albania, and engage students in exploring ways to enhance religious harmony in Albania.
The program will include topics related to philosophical and religious bases of the tolerance and religious freedom, the historical origins of religious freedom, the judicial and political responses to conflicts between freedom of religion and other human rights at both national and international levels, with dealing several examples in different parts of the world.
