My Journey at Democracy Plus – Narta Oruçi

I joined Democracy Plus on January 13, 2025. During my time at D+, I had the opportunity to engage in various projects and research areas that significantly enriched my professional and personal development.

One of my primary responsibilities was assisting in the implementation of projects, which included verifying data, conducting research, and contributing to the development of platforms for media literacy. Through these tasks, I gained valuable insights into the process of ensuring accuracy and reliability in research while also understanding the importance of accessible and effective educational platforms in combating misinformation. This experience allowed me to enhance my analytical and critical thinking skills, work with diverse datasets, and contribute to the creation of impactful resources aimed at promoting media literacy. Additionally, collaborating with experienced professionals provided me with a deeper understanding of best practices in research methodology and the role of data-driven decision-making in shaping public discourse.

Beyond the technical aspects of my work, one of the most rewarding experiences at D+ was being part of a dynamic and dedicated team. My colleagues created a supportive environment, always ready to share their expertise and insights. Their professionalism and enthusiasm made my time at D+ both enjoyable and educational.

As I reflect on my journey at D+, I am deeply grateful for the skills I have developed and the knowledge I have gained. The experience has strengthened my commitment to promoting informed and engaged societies. I will always value the lessons I have learned and the relationships I have built, and I am eager to apply these experiences in my future pursuits.
