WFWP Albania - Silent Voices for Forgiveness and Reflection.

On December 2, 2025, the Albanian Women’s Federation for World Peace organized an

exhibition at the Fier Cultural Center as part of the international campaign for the Elimination

of Violence against Women and Girls. The exhibition, titled “120 Scarves: Silent Voices for

Forgiveness and Reflection,” featured an artistic installation composed of 120 scarves

collected from female students, women, and activists. Each scarf represented a personal story,

unspoken emotions, and the resilience and strength of Albanian women. The opening event

was attended by around 50 guests, including some Ambassadors for Peace, high school students, and other guests.

The event was coordinated by the local WFWP representative, Zsuzsanna Sulejmani, and

organized in collaboration with the Numani school, led by Ms. Suzana Numani, who through

her network of activists helped collect scarfs, and brought students and guests to the event.

Also, local art school provided student artwork with the topic against violence. The venue of

the Cultural Center was provided by local municipality free of charge. Additionally, the event

was attended by Ms. Daniela Hasimaj, who coordinates activities against violence at Fier

Municipality.

The event aimed to raise awareness, encourage reflection, and promote solidarity with

women and girls affected by violence. Through visual art and performances, the exhibition

delivered a powerful message against domestic and gender-based violence, emphasizing that

violence has no place in families, communities, or society.

The program was enriched by musical performances from three students from Japan, poetry

readings by teacher Ilir Bobo, and four students from “Numani” School, and artistic

contributions by two art school students, which added emotional depth and color to the

exhibition. The initiative highlighted collective responsibility and community engagement in

supporting survivors and fostering a culture of peace and respect.
