Daniela Kortoçi

I am a versatile woman driven by curiosity and a passion for creativity. I hold a degree in Civil Engineering and a second degree in Restoration of Cultural Monuments, combining my love for heritage preservation with sustainable development initiatives. For the past three years, I have been part of the engineering team in the #EU4Culture program, restoring back the cultural heritage damaged by the 2019 earthquake.

In addition to my professional endeavors, I am an author with two published poetry collections. Through my personal blog, I advocate for women’s empowerment and the girls’ right to education.

Since 2020, I have been an active member of the Young European Ambassador Network, and the Entity Coordinator for YEAs in Albania for two years. In this leadership role, I have demonstrated exceptional managerial skills and organized numerous events at both Regional and European levels.

My current aspiration is to empower young people in rural areas and contribute to preserving cultural heritage as a means of fostering inclusion, equality, and a sense of belonging.
