On Tuesday, April 16th, a delegation of 25 public servants from Albania conducted a study visit at the Foundation as part of the European project Young Cells, which counts among its partners the Emilia-Romagna Region and the University of Bologna. This project aims to contribute to strengthening transparency and efficiency in the Albanian public administration through a series of activities including practical training, mentoring sessions, and study visits in various EU member states, including Italy.
The study visit was an opportunity to present the Foundation, its history, its focus on the local dimension, and its commitment to innovation and transformation of the urban space in Bologna. The work carried out by the different areas of the Foundation was also presented, with a focus on the ongoing European projects that address cross-cutting topics involving Albania itself, given its status as a candidate country of the EU.
