Empowering Balkan Youth in Research
YO-FI (Youth Open Research and Innovation Fellowship) is dedicated to fostering open and responsible research among young researchers in North Macedonia and Kosovo. Through tailored resources and hands-on training, the project addresses the region’s unique challenges in research and innovation.
