OpenDataFellowship 2025 by AIS – Empowering Students and Young Activists Through the Power of Open Data

/in /by

The AIS (NGO) is pleased to announce that the OpenDataFellowship – Youth Empowerment Against Corruption 2025 program has officially started. A selected group of students and young activists from four public and private universities has begun their journey of learning and practice in the use of open data for research, analysis, and data-driven advocacy. Participants — students from Economics, Journalism, Law, and Social Sciences, as well as members of civil society — are engaging in a structured training cycle that includes info sessions, hands-on practice, and mentorship. The program focuses on transparency, anti-corruption tools, and the use of public databases to foster accountability. The Fellowship will reach its finale in October with participation in DataThon Albania, where fellows will work on practical, data-based advocacy projects. By the end of the program, participants will receive certificates, gain new analytical skills, and may collaborate further with AIS in open data initiatives. This initiative aims to empower young people, promote civic engagement, and encourage the use of data as a tool for transparency and integrity.
