Abstract

After the cycle of NEZI conferences, based on the articles in the media regarding the religiousness in general, and for youths of Albanian origin in particular, as well as on the public debates in countries of Western Europe regarding migration, the impact of different religions in the construction of their identity, and after consultations with other conference participants who were interested in this project, we started thinking of writing an article about national identity and religiousness of the youths of Albanian origin. Apart from revealing the scientific truth about religious and national (ethnic) identity, the paper aims at presenting the activities of the NEZI group to the public, pointing out the outcomes of the cycle of conferences held in 2014 and 2015.

Keywords: religious and national (ethnic) identity of the youths in diaspora, Prishtina, Tetova, Religious and national (ethnic) holidays, etc.
