Short description
(German)
The health sector is one of the sectors which had major problems to cope with the transformation in Albania, due to its heritage from the communist past in terms of inadequate infrastructure and workforce. That is the reason why soon after the opening of the country, many international aid agencies opted to support reform efforts within this sector, among them Swiss NGOs, Swiss medical institutions and – last but not least – SDC and SECO.In 2005, a new and big reform effort has been lounged by the Albanian government with a National Strategy for Development and Integration NSDI 2007-13, reaffirming Albania’s Vision to become a country with European standards.SDC/SECO, by its 2010-13 cooperation strategy, offered support to this comprehensive reform efforts with coherent projects in various sectors. A health component was introduced under the heading of ‘democratization and decentralization’ with the Professional Development Program PDS, establishing a national center for continuous education: the NCCE. For the drafting of the next cooperation strategy (2014-17), with the option for a continued commitment in health, an up-to-date ‘health sector assessment’ was considered essential to get the necessary evidence for the forthcoming planning process.
