Abstract
Albania is in an on-going decentralization process. More and more responsibilities are being shifted to regional and local levels. Public and private actors engaged in regional economic development are subsequently required to systematically improve their specialist knowledge, methodological, social and personal skills and competencies to be able to make a substantial contribution to growth and prosperity in their home regions. This is of particular importance for civil servants working in local administrations over the country, who are still the main actors in managing local and regional development concepts.

Debating on the future of Europe: In the current debate on the European Union in times of the economic crisis and following the European elections of May 2014, there is a need to deepen further the discussion on the future of Europe on what kind of Europe citizens want, also stimulating new forms of civic participation whilst reinforcing those existing. This debate should be based on lessons learned from history and consider in particular the concrete achievements of the European Union. Such debate should not be limited to citizens already supporting the idea of the European Union, but reach out to citizens who have not been involved so far, or who reject the Union outright or put in question its achievements.
The main applicant and coordinator of DOCPIE is the Slovenian organizationDruštvo za razvoj podeželja.

Description
While there is already insufficient support for starting a business in terms of effective and efficient policy support, regulatory frameworks, targeted consulting and investment availability, or venture capitalists have become even more difficult as "social initiative" is still widely unknown.
However, social enterprises, given the specific roles among NGOs depending on donor funding and regular profit-oriented businesses, combine two segments that were often incompatible: social work and doing business capital is not regularly deducted from equity. of company capital. This requires a specific type of entrepreneur who engages entrepreneurs in solving social problems, e.g. in the field of education, environmental protection, employment creation for people with disabilities, or poverty reduction, or the like. As social enterprises contribute to increasing the well-being of the population, they need more attention.
Introduction
Meet – Alb Talents Project, promoted by CRDLS Albania Center, in close collaboration with local, national and international partners aims to favor a profound reflection of political, sociological and anthropological caracter on the size and shape that the phenomenon of new generations mobility and circulation over the prospect of talent is taking recently. In this project will be engaged different structures as the businesses, associations, companies or foundations that work with foreign staff or how they absorb young people who have studied abroad and how do they find the appropriate local social capital?
Through this project Vlora “will run as a national laboratory of monitoring the phenomenon and experimenting the policies of their re-absorption. Youth, academics, experts, institutions, representatives of the business community etc will discuss topics and solutions that will be undertaken to make reversible the decision to leave the country and to convert the added value of their experience gained abroad.
All this, being convinced that only through new generations, with their energy and skills, their ability to be a bridge between the present and the future, between the territory of origin and global challenges, we can return to growth, generating development and welfare territory.
