Mrs. Tare, referred to the students on the topic “Challenges of Women in Media and Politics,” focusing on the reality presented by Albanian society
Illustrating the conversation with examples from her career in journalism, she expressed that Albanian woman has all the necessary potentials to give her contributions in all spheres of the society.
