In the framework of the TACSO Albania project, RASP organized a training workshop about the “Involvement of civil society in the decision making process”. This training took place in three Albanian cities such as in Vlora, Berat and Kukes starting from June-August 2011. The participation of communities and civil society in the decision making process seems to be a very strong issue nowadays. The Code of Good Practice was presented during these trainings outlining a new methodology for achieving the involvement of civil society through all the stages of decision making. Other topics discussed were the role of civil society in decision making, the participation of the community etc. This training was carried out in two days. The second day was a follow-up session, where participants had to present an individual assignment. RASP, represented by the trainer Petrit Dobi presented a set of theoretical knowledge and practical assignments to the participants, who came from the civil society sector and from the local governance structures. The conclusion of this training had a positive feedback from the participants, who expressed their desire to have similar activities in the future.
