Likewise, EU ambassador Christiane Hohmann emphasizes the aid that the EU is giving to Albania in support of education and cultural heritage.

“The European Union and its member states reacted immediately to help Albania recover from the terrible earthquake. Today, I am proud to see dozens of new, modern schools and important cultural heritage sites being restored. EU support is already bringing about a change in the country’s education system and its cultural heritage. It is offering better educational opportunities for the new generation, the future citizens of Albania in the EU. It is helping Albania preserve its rich heritage and promote local tourism,” said EU Ambassador Christiane Hohmann.
