Speaking with Greta Topjana on <\/span>Profil<\/span>, she shared that she has received numerous awards throughout her life, but the most shocking moment was her nomination for the Nobel Prize.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI have received several truly prestigious awards. But the one that shocked me the most was in 2005 when I was nominated as part of the initiative <\/span>1000 Women for the Nobel Prize<\/span>. I was in a computer center because the electricity had gone out in our office when I received an email saying I had been nominated for the Nobel Prize. I screamed so loudly because it felt unbelievable.<\/span><\/p>\n

That was the first stage, and at that point, it wasn\u2019t supposed to be made public. Out of the 1,000 nominees, 100 would be selected, and then the Nobel Prize organizers would recommend them to governments. I was among those chosen, and they informed the Albanian state so they could promote it. But nothing was done. Absolutely nothing,\u201d said Sevim Arbana.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
