Integrated Water and Ecosystems Management Project

The main objective of the project is to assist the Government of Albania in improving the management of uncontrolled wastewater discharging into international waters which is threatening the global significant ecosystems along the coastline of Albania.

The project will contribute to increase global environmental benefits by:

• (i) reducing sewage pollution loads generated by urban settlement areas of the three coastal cities Durres, Lezha and Saranda and
• (ii) promoting and improving the management of the tidal Kune-Vain marshland (near Lezha).
