The event was organized as a contest among groups and individuals. Six groups managed to get to the finals, presenting the following topics:<\/p>\n

Topic: Health Care in My City<\/strong><\/span><\/span>.<\/em> How is money spent in the hospitals for citizens\u2019 health? Where is budgeting done best: Gjirokastra, Fieri, Kor\u00e7a, Dibra, or Kuk\u00ebsi? Students of Economics monitored budget-related facts for regional hospitals. Money means first health services, and then health. Some of the Hackers\u2019 findings include: more money is paid for salaries than medications, equipment, and hospital treatment. .<\/p>\n

Topic: Employment vs. University in My City<\/strong><\/span><\/span>.\u00a0<\/em>The number of those pursuing their University studies is much higher than the number of new jobs requiring a University degree. An analysis of these figures presented at this Hackthon brings a comparison showing how disintegrated these two trends are. Finding: 6% of the country population is University students. However, the number of jobs that require a University degree is far from that. Study fees are the highest at the University of Medicine, but the highest salaries are paid in the Hydrocarbure Industry. The number of IT students is the lowest, but the highest number of new jobs is found precisely in this sector. There is a need for more research in the labor market and its relation with the University \u2013 that is the conclusion of the first presentation at Hackathon Albania.<\/p>\n
