A Commission on the Efficiency of the Justice System (CEPEJ) expert, Ms Carmela Germinario, introduced the draft report on the development of a new judicial map in Albania during a seminar with participants from various courts. The collection of numerous data from various beneficiaries related to input, process and output, in line with the CEPEJ guidelines on judicial mapping for the assessment of the current judicial map, was presented to participants by CEPEJ local consultant, Ms Blerina Bulica. This activity aims to assist the new High Judicial Council and the Ministry of Justice with the needed guidance and expertise in this area as the two institutions responsible for the review and proposal of a new judicial map.

This activity took place on 27 October 2017 under the action “Strengthening the efficiency and quality of the justice system in Albania - SEJ II”, which is part of the programme entitled "Horizontal Facility for the Western Balkans and Turkey", co-funded by the European Union and the Council of Europe, and implemented by the Council of Europe.
