This report is part of a series of country reports covering seven countries in the Western Balkans and Turkey: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, North Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, and Turkey. A Regional Report is also available summarizing findings and recommendations for all countries and a web platform offering access to monitoring data per country1. The Monitoring Matrix, developed in 2013 by BCSDN, with the support of its members and partners, sets the main principles and standards crucial for the legal environment to be considered supportive both for the operations and for development of CSOs. The Monitoring Matrix is organized around three main areas, each divided by sub-areas: 1. Basic Legal Guarantees of Freedoms; 2. Framework for CSOs’ Financial Viability and Sustainability; 3. Government – CSO Relationship. The principles, standards, and indicators rely on internationally guaranteed freedoms and rights and best regulatory practices at the European Union level and in European countries. The Matrix aims to define the optimum situation for effective operation and development of civil society, as well as set a realistic framework that can be implemented by public authorities. Having in mind that the main challenges lay in implementation, the indicators have been defined to monitor the situation by taking into consideration both the legal framework and its practical use. The research undertaken with the Monitoring Matrix aims to provide evidence on the enabling environment for civil society development and to influence the support of governments, the European Union2 and other donors towards more sustainable and strategic development of the sector. 1 www.monitoringmatrix.net 2 For these purposes, within the findings part, the report further makes references and correlations to the Guidelines for EU Support to Civil Society in Enlargement Countries, 2014-2020. Acknowledgments The Monitoring Matrix on Enabling Environment for Civil Society Development – Country Report for Albania 2020 is prepared by Partners Albania for Change and Development and the National Resource Centre for Civil Society in Albania (NRC) with collaborative effort and support of CSOs. Partners Albania and NRC would like to express their gratitude to the executive directors and high-level managers of CSOs for their cooperation, contribution, and time devoted to the survey with 121 CSOs, and to the public institutions that responded to the requests for information. Monitoring Matrix on the Enabling Environment for Civil Society Development 2020 - Albania 8 Executive Summary Executive Summary Monitoring Matrix on the Enabling Environment for Civil Society Development 2020 - Albania 9 Background | Country Overview In March 2020, the members of the European Council endorsed the General Affairs Council’s decision to open accession negotiations with Albania and in July 2020 the draft-negotiating framework establishing the guidelines and principles governing the negotiations with the country were presented to the Member States3. Following the adoption of the frameworks, the first intergovernmental conference for Albania should be convened, prior to which Albania is called on to make further progress on electoral and judicial reforms and in the fight against organized crime and corruption. On March 9, 2020, the first two cases from the coronavirus pandemic have been announced in Albania. At the start of the pandemic, the Ministry of Health and Social Protection and the Public Health Institute prepared an Action Plan for Prevention, Preparation, and Response towards COVID-19 scenarios. The plan was followed by the decision of the Council of Ministers No.243 of 24 March 2020 “On the Declaration of Natural Disaster Situation”4, which enabled the Albanian government to impose preventive and precautionary measures to prevent the spread of the infection. These measures included the closure of public activities such as the closure of educational institutions (nursery, kindergarten, schools, and universities); forbidden internal travel; suspended sea, air, and land movement to neighbouring countries except for goods; closure of bars, restaurants, mosques, churches and the banning of all sports and large people gatherings. Weekday curfew hours and weekend lockdown measures were imposed to minimize and restrict citizen movement. As a result of measures taken to cope with the situation of COVID–19, which may be interpreted as a violation of article 8 and article 11 (freedom of assembly and organization) of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), the Albanian authorities notified a derogation from the convention (article 15 – Derogation in time of crisis). The State of Emergency for Natural Disaster was extended until June 2020, and after that, based on the recommendations of the Technical Committee of Experts on the COVID-19 situation, a series of legal acts were approved. 3 https://ec.europa.eu/neighbourhood-enlargement/countries/detailed-country-information/albania_en

    International Conference SDI 2010 – Skopje; 15-17.09.2010 MULTIPURPOSE LAND INFORMATION SYSTEMS - AN ALBANIAN PERSPECTIVE Pal NIKOLLI 1, Bashkim IDRIZI 2, Ismail KABASHI 3, Sonila PAPATHIMIU 4 ABSTRACT The need for more, better, and integrated land information and the availability of technology to meet this need, have set the stage for the development of Multipurpose Land Information Systems (MPLIS). In the paper we note that the cadastral maps being produced in Albania would be part of the graphic material of an MPLIS and the property register information (such as registry books, tapi, etc) would be included as part of the attribute record in text form. The MPLIS is a relatively complex system, but it covers many needs of both government and the private sector. We recognize the current need to focus on cadastre as part of Land Market Action Plan. The Government of Albania has begun planning for the future as the needs for an MPLIS are increasing and the free trade economy is making such a system economically feasible. Therefore, we suggest the development of an MPLIS for Albania. Key word : Albania, Land Information Systems, Multipurpose Land Information Systems, cadastre, cadastre maps, reference frameworks. 1. INTRODUCTION Vital components for human life are land, access to land and managing the land. The land is fundamental for humankind because it carries all things on it such as; roads, buildings, animals, the air above, the water and the minerals within its surface. The land means to many people the space for their activities and the different forms of holding and managing its resources.

  • Territorial/Spatial Planning in Albania
    Territorial/Spatial Planning In Albania Pal NIKOLLI, Bilal DRAÇI (Albania) and Bashkim IDRIZI (Macedonia - FYROM) Key words: Spatial Planning, Spatial Information Systems (SIS), mapping base, spatialplanning/territorial documents, Albania, spatial data, data base for planning, geographic information SUMMARY Albania has a complex history of spatial planning that dates from the last century (1950 year) and has experienced a dramatic transformation due to changing political and economic regime in 1990. The first attempts to create a new system of territorial planning in Albania began in 2006 with the preparation of a policy document for planning. The process forpreparation of the law on territorial planning began after the adoption of the policy document in 2007. On April 23, 2009, was passed by the Parliament, the Law no. 10119, "On Territorial Planning". This law has been amended six times since it was approved. Territorial planning authority in Albania resides at the national and local level. The national territorial planning authority resides in the central government, which (under the current legislation) is with the Territorial Planning Council of the Republic of Albania that adopts and approves or rejects different urban and spatial planning studies. The relevant ministry handling territory planning activities through the Territory Planning Directorate co- ordinates work among Territorial Planning Council, state bodies and local government bodies in the field of spatial planning. This presentationaddresses theseproblems: - Territory Plan overview - Territorial planning in Albania - National authoritiesof territorial planning - Coordination of territorial planning documents - GIS Technique for Territorial Analysis - Data for Spatial Planning in Albania - Current problemsrelatedto spatial planning inAlbania The purpose of this paper is to present, in short, the existence in Albania of various SIS/GIS and databases, the most important cartographic products, technologies, data extraction and data strings for the needs spatial planning.

This report proposes “Master Plans” on long-term perspectives targeting the year of 2027 and “Action Plans” for priority projects which have been identified in the master plans for thematic four (4) infrastructure sectors, namely, 1) Roads and Urban Transportation; 2) Solid Waste Management; 3) Water Supply; and 4) Sewerage and Drainage Systems. Environmental and institutional discussions are also included to seek for a rational way to the implementation of proposed plans. This report was prepared under close coordination with the technical team working for Tirana Urban Regulatory Plan in terms of the population framework and economic activities in association with land use strategies to manage sustainable and balanced urban growth in the Tirana Metropolitan Area. Therefore, planning logics and concepts underlying these thematic plans have been coherent with the Regulatory Plan, because these plans are part of the Tirana Regulatory Plan. Final Report consists of three (3) separate volumes: ₋ Main Text (English, Albanian) ₋ Summary (English, Albanian, Japanese) ₋ General Profiles of Priority Projects (English) We, JICA Study Team, acknowledge all counterpart personnel of Municipality of Tirana, the members of the Steering Committee and those who kindly extended their supports in the course of this project, and hope Municipality of Tiran make use of this report for further development towards its committed vision, “Modern European City”.
