TIRANA, Feb 23 /ATA/ – Concrete steps to strengthen Albania’s circular economy framework was on focus of the fifth Steering Committee meeting of the “Resilience and Green Development” programme, held at the Ministry of Environment on Monday.
The programme serves as a joint platform supporting Albania’s transition towards sustainable development and its European integration process.
Environment Minister Sofjan Jaupaj said discussions focused on measures ranging from strengthening the circular economy framework through the Extended Producer Responsibility law, to improving the climate monitoring system and greenhouse gas inventory, as well as ensuring sustainable management of protected areas through new financial instruments and integrated management plans.
“Through institutional coordination, we can ensure accurate data for decision-making, build capacities at central and local levels, and channel investments that increase resilience to climate change while protecting biodiversity,” Jaupaj said.
