Winners of the National SUJ Hackathon in Bucharest

A team of young innovators aged 15 to 18 from “Matosh Uka” School in Tropojë was invited to Bucharest last week to celebrate their achievements in the Vodafone Foundation Skills Upload Jr (SUJ) Challenge 2025. This event was held to honor the winners of national challenges in digital and technological skills, creating a platform to showcase the creativity and inventions of these young participants on the international stage.

The Albanian youths were invited as winners of the National Hackathon, Skills Upload Junior, held in northern Albania, joining peers from countries such as Germany, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Romania, and Turkey. During the event, the young participants shared their experiences, exchanged knowledge with one another, and built friendships that will last a lifetime. Their digital skills play a key role in building cultural and gender bridges and bridging generational gaps, once again demonstrating the power of technology to connect people.
