EBRD and IDLO strengthen judicial capacity building
Albania
English
Despite progress and reforms in many fields, Albania still faces major challenges including crime, endemic corruption, weak law enforcement and lack of infrastructure. The judicial system is still perceived to be slow, inefficient, lacking in transparency and pervaded by corruption. Some success in fighting illegal trade in weapons and drugs notwithstanding, organized criminal activities continue to be a serious problem.
