This initiative represents a shift in Albania’s management of public assets and will serve to revolutionize how public institutions operate by constructing new, purpose-built facilities that can accommodate the needs of a growing and modernizing public sector through partnerships with private businesses. The aim is to replace these outdated premises with modern, functional buildings that better align with Albania’s “2030 Vision.”

These communications, decrypted by international law enforcement agencies and shared with Albanian authorities, have led to the arrests of dozens of individuals and have shed light on many unsolved crimes in the country. SPAK has filed charges against various people based on this evidence, which has not only illuminated involvement in criminal activities but also revealed connections between crime, politics, and business figures.

Why is this significant

Excessive use of technology, unhealthy diets, and a lack of physical activity have significantly increased obesity among children in Albania. A 2023 study, using data from the global obesity map, shows that 6.7% of children are obese, and according to this trend, by 2035, 37% of the population could be obese. Therefore, initiatives that promote sports activities are crucial in combating this condition and ensuring healthier children and youth.
