Albania has one of the youngest population in Europe. The unemployment rate for young people (age 15-29) remains high at 25%, associated with substantial skills mismatches. Our Youth Empowerment project is helping the most vulnerable youth to overcome obstacles and realize their job aspirations by developing their personal, vocational and employability skills. Here are some of them who are supported to develop skills, find a job, open up their businesses and lead a life towards the economic empowerment.

Save the Children, Terre des hommes and the European Union Delegation in Albania have jointly organized the Conference focusing on lessons learned best practices, challenges and effective solutions to enhance the protection of children rights in Albania.
