About
Overview:This Joint Programme (EG JP) was designed to enhance the effective management, regulation and monitoring of key public utility sectors such as water and electricity, in strengthening of consumer’s voice to promote and protect their rights and in designing of pro poor utility policies in favour of vulnerable groups. The outcomes of this joint programme provided its own contribution to the implementation of Albanian Government NSDI and achieving its objectives particularly in the water, energy and consumer protection sectors. The EG JP essentially provided several studies, reports, assessments and research for regulatory bodies. Among the most notable results; the assessment of the power model in Albania as well as the capacity diagnosis report for the General Department for water and sanitation. A consumer survey was prepared that will be used to improve the quality of services. At the request of the Ministry of Economy, the JP is contributing to the legal framework as well as the strengthening of the capacities of the new inspection infrastructure directly related to the support provided within the Economic Governance to regulatory entities and consumer protection policies in Albania. A new “water model contract” was developed and approved by the national water commission. The JP also implemented a training programme for 230 journalists and supported the capacity development of mediators to handle consumer-business disputes. Critical data collection was undertaken through various studies and reports, for example “access to water and sewerage in the informal urban settlements and rural areas in the selected Albanian districts”. The data of the studies provide scientific support to inform government decision-making.
