Initial situation
The Sustainable Development of Rural Areas project works with the private sector and the Albanian government to make rural areas more competitive and improve local incomes. To this end, it is intended to create the necessary political framework and introduce innovations in agriculture and tourism. and replicate within the market. In this context, the country is striving to join the EU and promotes green growth, digitalization and diversity.
Goal
It is desirable to live and work in rural areas in Albania.
Approach
When it comes to agricultural products, the project focuses on greenhouse production of vegetables, fruit growing and dairy farming. Farmers who are open to innovations, for example, adopt biological methods for pest control and thereby increase quality and production volume. Market actors such as exporters and public institutions as well as other bodies that provide input promote and spread innovations and reach many farmers who largely adopt the procedures.
With regard to tourism in rural areas, the project promotes outdoor sports and holiday and leisure activities as well as destination management. For example, several providers specializing in rural areas and a travel company offer a wine tour intended to attract international tourists. Similar companies follow this model and adapt it to the specific characteristics of their region.
