The students were very active and remained satisfied with this project, taking with them the additional information they learned from the lecturers: Dr. Nevila Molla, Dr. Sabina Veseli, Dr. Melsi Labi, Dr. Ervin Kujtila, Dr. Edlira Andoni, experiences and a new perspective for the beautiful history of our country.

This perspective was reinforced by the visit to the Archaeological Museum of Tirana, where the students were amazed by the various artifacts, especially those collected by the Archaeological Museum, which were well-maintained and carefully preserved.

There was great interest from young people in every aspect of our project. We were happy to welcome the spirit of energetic and intelligent adolescents who are the future of our country.
