Our Founder & Director

Who is Pjetër Budi?
Pjetër Budi (1566–1622) was one of the most important figures of Albanian culture and literature of the 17th century. He was a Catholic cleric and writer, known as one of the earliest authors to write in the Albanian language. Budi worked to strengthen the Catholic Church among Albanians and to defend national identity during a difficult period under Ottoman rule.
His works include liturgical and moral texts such as “Christian Doctrine,” which aimed at the religious and linguistic education of the Albanian people. In his writings, he conveyed patriotic and spiritual messages, encouraging the preservation of Albanian culture and language. He lost his life in a tragic manner in the Drin River while attempting to organise resistance against the Ottomans.
