TNC23: TIRANA, ALBANIA
DIGITAL GENERATIONS
We often hear the term 'digital natives' to describe a person who has grown up in the information age, but we are living in that age - we are all digital generations. Tirana, awarded the European Youth Capital for 2022, is the perfect juxtaposition of these generations with a vibrant community of students and young workers.
Serving all digital generations is a challenge that NRENs must face, from building innovative educational experiences to supporting advanced research projects that have spanned decades. TNC23 provided ,the perfect opportunity to reflect on how we engage digital generations and how we are integrating future generations into our own organisations and infrastructure.

Founded in 1614, Tirana is the heart and capital of Albania. It’s a lively and colourful city with a mild Mediterranean climate. Tirana’s beautiful churches, lush parks, and great tradition for hospitality made this city, awarded the European Youth Capital for 2022, the perfect setting for TNC23.
