ENTAIL project is an initiative funded by the Interreg IPA South Adriatic Programme 2021/2027.
This project is designed to support the preaccession of Albania and Montenegro to the European Union, aligning with the Programme’s goals and priorities.
The project “Material Assessement” is aligned with the objectives of the Interreg IPA South Adriatic Programme 2021/2027
Its goal is to enhance how culture and tourism contribute to economic development, social inclusion and social innovation. This goal will be achieved through the development of sustainable mobility networks and the incorporation of best practices in eco-tourism. Sustainability will encompass not only the environment and transport but also individuals, materializing through personalized solutions based on a Human-Centered approach, aiming to promote well-being, equity and harmony in society. Special attention is given to the integration of infrastructural and service components, such as historic railway lines, pedestrian and cycling paths, ports and historic centres, to enrich the visitor experience.
The project proposal, under the "Smart" Priority Program, aim to improving conditions for the growth and competitiveness of SMEs, including micro SMEs, in the three Countries involved.
With a structured and inclusive approach, the project involves creating detailed assessment of the digital needs of participating companies. In the first phase, each company will receive a detailed assessment to identify areas for improvement and opportunities for developing Digital Transformation.
The “Smart Recycling: Circular Community” project aims to raise awareness and engage local communities in smart waste management and recycling. The initiative involves setting up interactive and innovative recycling stations within neighborhoods, where citizens can properly dispose of materials such as plastic, glass, paper, and organic waste. These stations will be equipped with advanced technologies that offer incentives, such as discounts on local services, in exchange for active participation in recycling. Additionally, the project includes a series of educational workshops in schools and cultural centers to promote an eco-friendly mindset and raise awareness of waste reduction.
Objectives:
The “EcoNorma: Sustainability in Business” project aims to help local small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) comply with environmental regulations and implement sustainability practices within their operations. The project offers a free consultancy program for local businesses, providing tools to reduce environmental impact, improve energy efficiency, and comply with regulations on waste management and emissions reduction. Additionally, fiscal incentives and “green” certifications will be offered to companies that demonstrate eco-friendly practices.
Objectives:
This initiative aims to establish a partnership with a Catholic religious NGO to offer professional training in traditional manufacturing skills, such as sewing and knotting, specifically targeting disadvantaged groups, including women and the poor. The project will highlight the important role of women in Albanian communities and culture, empowering them with skills that can provide economic independence and foster community leadership.
In parallel with the training program, a Database of Women-Led Businesses will be created, focusing on enterprises founded and managed by women in Albania. This database will serve as a resource to foster collaboration among female entrepreneurs and enhance commercial and work-related interactions.
The project will encourage collaboration between women-led businesses, connecting them with larger markets and supply chains, creating opportunities for networking and mutual support.
Establish partnerships with local and international stakeholders to promote the sale and distribution of the products made by the women involved in the training programs, further supporting their economic integration and empowerment.
By emphasizing both the training in manufacturing and the development of a network of women entrepreneurs, this initiative will not only promote the social and economic upliftment of women but also strengthen their role as key contributors to Albanian culture and society.
Training Programs: Launch practical training programs in sewing, knotting, and other manufacturing skills. These programs will provide participants with valuable skills that can lead to sustainable employment or entrepreneurial opportunities.
Empowerment of Women: By focusing on women, this project aims to reinforce their crucial role within Albanian society, promoting their active participation in the economy and community leadership.
Supporting Disadvantaged Groups: The initiative will focus on individuals from underprivileged backgrounds, providing them with tools to overcome economic challenges through skill development and access to job opportunities.
The EArPiCe project is centered on studying, cataloging, and analyzing popular music repertoires in Italy, Albania, and Montenegro. This project aims to bridge cross-border cultural gaps by understanding how popular music from different ethnic and social groups, dating from the Baroque period to the present, can create new cultural exchanges. The key goal is to explore possible cultural similarities that may inspire future music production across these regions.
The ENTAIL project focuses on deepening the analysis of popular music in the South Adriatic (Italy, Albania, Montenegro). It builds on the EArPieCe project and aims to archive, preserve, and promote the region’s musical and ethnological heritage. The project runs for 12 months, led by DHITECH (Italy), and includes partners from Albania and Montenegro.
