Within the framework of the International Development Cooperation of the Republic of Slovenia the Centre for European Perspective (CEP) carried out a workshop on strengthening the independence of election bodies. Strengthening of democratic institutions is for Albania as a candidate for EU membership of utmost importance.

The participants of the workshop were members and adminstrative staff of Central Election Commissions of Albania and Slovenia, experts of elections and managment with experience in the region and beyond, representatives of non-government organisations working in the field of elections and electoral processes, members of Parliament, representatives of political parties and legal experts.
This event was honored by the presence and address of the Ambassador of Slovenia in Albania, H.E. Ms. Lea Stančič and president of Central Election Commission of Republic of Albania, Ms. Lefterije Luzi.
