International Generalist Day — Durres
Have you ever struggled to explain what you do because you do more than one thing?
Perhaps you have changed careers, combined several interests, or built a life that doesn't fit neatly into one professional title. You might be a designer who teaches, a developer who writes, an employee building a business, or simply someone still connecting the dots.
Join Mary Mojisola Job in Durrës for International Generalist Day, a global celebration happening simultaneously across cities worldwide on 16 September 2026.
Mary is hosting an intimate, facilitated gathering at HDY Haus Studio to connect generalists in the Durrës area. We will share stories, reflect on the different skills and experiences we carry, and explore the threads connecting the many parts of our lives and work.
This is not a formal conference or traditional networking event. It is a relaxed evening of thoughtful conversation, personal reflection, and meaningful connection.
You do not need to call yourself a generalist to attend. You only need to be curious.
What is a generalist?
Professionals who apply their skills across multiple domains, connect disparate ideas, or serve as "translators" between different teams and disciplines. If you have ever felt that your career does not fit inside a single box, this celebration is for you.
What to expect
Connect with fellow generalists in Durrës
Celebrate the power of diverse skill sets and squiggly careers
Take part in a facilitated conversation about our different skills and identities
Complete a short reflective activity to identify the thread connecting your interests
Meet curious, multidimensional people in a small and welcoming space
Be part of a global movement happening on the same day worldwide
The gathering will be held in English, but perfect English is not required. You do not need to prepare anything or arrive with a polished professional introduction.
About your host
Mary Mojisola Job is a Community Strategist, knowledge-management professional, WordPress and open-source advocate, educator, and founder of HDY Haus. Her work crosses community, technology, education, knowledge, storytelling, and entrepreneurship.
For Mary, being a generalist means recognising that the different parts of your experience are not unrelated. Together, they form the story of how you think, contribute, and build.
This meetup is run by Mary Mojisola Job and organised by Generalist World - the community where generalists belong. You'll find everything you need to grow in your career - support, opportunity, lots of learning and great new connections.
