“Pranvera Hyseni – is a global science popularizer, and the Founder and Director of “Astronomy Outreach of Kosovo”. 

Hyseni started showing an interest in astronomy at the early age of three, while Kosovo was still facing the Serbian conflict in the late 90’s. As a young kid, she grew up in a farm, taking advantage of breathtaking, dark night skies, which captured her attention. She also attributes her inspiration from an uncle who showed her an eclipse of the sun from reflected sunlight in a bucket of water. 

Pranvera is credited with bringing the science of astronomy to the citizens of Kosovo as well as people around the world by developing an effective and sustainable astronomy outreach program.”
