PM Rama unveils EUR 1.5 billion plan for a new phase of urban development in Albania

TIRANA, July 10 – Prime Minister Edi Rama presented the “Urban Renaissance 2.0” programme, an ambitious development initiative that aims to further transform Albania’s urban landscape with a EUR 1.5 billion funding target.

According to Rama, the new programme responds to a new stage of Albania’s development, where citizens have higher expectations and demand better standards.

The prime minister said the main difference between the first “Urban Renaissance” programme and the new phase is the need to move beyond the initial transformation and build a more advanced development model.

Meanwhile, Rama said that progress achieved in recent years has changed the way society views public services and living standards. He stressed that higher expectations reflect development rather than dissatisfaction.

The prime minister explained that successful reforms increase citizens’ demands for better conditions. He added that Albania has entered a new stage where further progress requires new approaches
