The #aktivizIM App empowers Albanian women and youth to increase political participation through an engaging digital platform.
ADDRESSING UNDERREPRESENTATION IN POLITICS
The #aktivizIM App tackles the urgent need to boost youth activism and political participation of women and girls in Albania. Despite their critical role in shaping the future, these groups face persistent barriers and remain underrepresented in political processes. The app provides an inclusive, innovative platform designed specifically to empower young people—especially girls and women—to actively engage in their communities.
GAMIFIED ENGAGEMENT
Using a gamified system of challenges covering Politics, Education, Environment, Activism, and more, users are encouraged to identify local issues, take meaningful action, and raise their voices in public discourse. The app also highlights the profiles and focus areas of women and girls, increasing their visibility, amplifying leadership, and inspiring wider participation. It creates a safe and supportive space where contributions are recognized and celebrated.
BUILDING A VIBRANT NETWORK OF CIVIC ENGAGEMENT
Key activities include raising awareness and promoting civic engagement at the local level. With over 550 challenges completed and 275,550 points earned, #aktivizIM is fostering a vibrant, engaged network that promotes democratic values and contributes to a more inclusive, participatory society led by empowered youth and women.
