In the picturesque city of Shkodra, a significant meeting recently took place, one that could have far-reaching consequences for the natural beauty of Albania’s Protected Areas (PAs). A coalition of Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) joined forces with local stakeholders to address the increasingly sensitive issue of border revisions within these vital conservation zones, a topic of growing concern both nationally and internationally.
The Group of Environmental Civil Society Organizations convened its second advisory meeting. Attendees included representatives from the Shkodra Regional Administration of Protected Areas, officials from the Department of Environment and Strategic Planning of Shkodra Municipality, academics from the Faculty of Natural Sciences at the University of Shkodra, and various local civil society organizations.
