[email protected] [email protected] i Acknowledgements The report was developed under the guidance and inputs of several people: Kaspar Wyss, Besnik Kadesha, Ardita Kongjonaj, Joao Costa and Ehad Mersini. We would further like to acknowledge the previous work of Barbara Matthys on the knowledge and behaviour on chronic conditions on which one component of the data collection heavily draws. Further Ms. Emira Galanxhi, Social Statistics Director of INSTAT, Albania provided valuable comments that have improved the design of the study. The data collection was done by EUNACAL Institute. Particularly we would like to highlight the commitment and professionalism of Alban Nelaj, as national supervisor and coordinator. We are further indebted to our interviewers and the regional supervisors (Corbin Kappler - Diber & Klodiana Tosuni - Fier) who have been working day by day in the field.
