We do this by stimulating, initiating, supporting and expanding ideas, practices, processes and know-how development and dissemination in various fields, fostering institutional development and democratic processes, thus expanding opportunities for democratic, social, economic, cultural, environmental and human development of Albanian population, in cooperation with the other national and international partners.
BRIEF HISTORY
