A participatory documenting of practices and perceptions

Albania has seen considerable changes in child protection in the last years. The government has put in place several initiatives to address the vulnerabilities and risks that affect the safety of  children, while investing in the ability and resilience of children and their families to prevent, mitigate or cope with such  risks and vulnerabilities. The government, in partnership with civil society organisations and development partners, has also embarked on adopting a systems approach to child protection. This mapping and analysis  report aims to identify what has been accomplished and the gaps that still need to be addressed. The mapping and analysis used qualitative methods to gather the necessary in formation, namely desk review, key informant interviews and focus group discussions.

The report is organised into seven areas, which for simplicity have been called thematic areas; they are: 1) the normative framework, 2) the structure of the system, 3) coordination, 4) services, 5) case management, 6) public finance management and public administration, and 7) monitoring and evaluation. The report ends with some considerations on the overall governance of the system and with recommendations to strengthen the system.

This information is based on the executive summary of the report.
