The NPO Academy is Partners Albania newest initiative, a program which will offer education and development opportunities to NPO executives. NPOs in Albania play a significant role in country development through their diverse competences and areas of operation. However, they still need to improve their skills related to organizational management, strategic planning, financial management and fundraising, mobilization of supporters to build advocacy and lobbying campaigns and a wide range of issues related to sector sustainability. We encourage applying in the Academy executives of Albanian NPOs, who aim enhancement of capacities and their professional development, to build effective organizations serving the public and interest groups. Please read the Information Brochure to find more about the program, criteria and application process now open to all interested candidates!

The Albanian Crowd www.thealbaniancrowd.org The Albanian Crowd is an interactive online platform of the Albanian NPOs and social enterprises. The platform provides comprehensive information on the location, scope of work, areas of activity, beneficiaries, services the organizations and social enterprises offer and projects they are working on. We encourage all members of the platform to frequently send us updated information, announcements and calls for volunteers and supporters for the initiatives and programs they are working on.

Priority will be given to executives of newly established NPOs!

The deadline for submission of the Application is March 2, 2015

We extend an invitation to all Albanian organizations and interested groups to join the platform by completing the online registration form at this link: http://www.thealbaniancrowd.org/aplikimi-en/ continues in page 9
