The assessment was developed within the framework of the project \u201cPromoting the systematic use of the administrative approach to combat organized crime in Albania.\u201d The study provides the first consolidated analysis of Albania\u2019s legal and institutional framework, as well as of how administrative instruments can be used to prevent the infiltration of organized crime into the economy and public institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The roundtable brought together representatives from public institutions, parliament, regulatory agencies, academia, media, and civil society to discuss the potential role of public administration in acting earlier and more preventively against the risks of criminal infiltration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Discussions highlighted that although Albania possesses a range of administrative mechanisms, such as licensing, inspections, public procurement oversight, ownership transparency, and financial supervision, their use in practice often remains fragmented and insufficiently coordinated. In this context, participants emphasized the need to strengthen inter-institutional cooperation, make more systematic use of administrative data, and develop joint risk-analysis mechanisms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The event also aimed to serve as a platform for exchanging perspectives among participating institutions on the practical challenges of inter-institutional cooperation and on the steps that could be taken to further institutionalize the administrative approach as an important preventive instrument.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"16\" width=\"16\" alt=\"\ud83c\udde6\ud83c\uddf1\" src=\"https:\/\/static.xx.fbcdn.net\/images\/emoji.php\/v9\/t42\/1\/16\/1f1e6_1f1f1.png\"> | This discussion is closely linked to the priorities of Albania\u2019s European integration process, contributing to the strengthening of institutional capacities to protect the lawful economy and to the development of more effective mechanisms for preventing organized crime.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As part of the activities marking European Integration Month, CSDG &#8211; Qendra p\u00ebr Studimin e Demokracis\u00eb dhe Qeverisjes organized a roundtable discussion dedicated to the role of the administrative approach in combating organized crime in Albania.
