The office of Ombudsperson and UNICEF Kosovo’s* Innovations Lab have established the “Know Your Rights Platform” to respond to an endemic lack of awareness of rights amongst youth in some specific priority areas.
It is a knowledge-sharing means and a direct contribution to problem solving while creating simple digital solutions to complex institutional challenges.
“If there’s one thing that I learned during my engagement with the [UNICEF] Innovations Lab, it’s that youth and adolescents are capable of bringing positive social change.”
This year, The Lab will be holding a master class on critical media literacy, as well as exhibiting project initiatives on topics like digitizing institutions and advocating for youth rights. Additionally, there will also be a volunteerism fair!
I knew it the day I went for the interview that I would fit perfectly with the values of the team and the positivity with which they go about their work!
As a result of the strong and lasting partnership between ADA and UNICEF, more than 150 youth-led project were supported, a number which is expected to see an upsurge as part of our joint efforts to invest in young peoples’ lives.
