Wiki Loves Living Heritage in Albania
Wiki Loves Living Heritage project essentials in Albania
Wiki Loves Living Heritage is a project that Wikimedians of Albanian Language User Group joined and launched in June 2023 as part of the Wiki Loves Living Heritage world campaign.
Over 10 months in collaboration with Kujto.al Foundation in Tirana, Albania, we worked closely to upload recordings of collective memory, testimonies, and real-life situations in Albania, shedding light on people’s experiences during communism.
The 28 testimonies cover many topics, including deportation, arrests, imprisonments, etc.
With many testimonies uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, we are now preserving Albania's collective memory, which serves to illustrate articles on Wikipedia about communism and dictatorship in the future and is now part of the free knowledge-sharing platforms.
Below is the category of videos on Wikimedia Commons.

Stay tuned for an upcoming editathon we want to develop with Kujto.al Foundation, where we will train our community to write articles on Wikipedia about collective memory and stories in Albania.
