From 19th till 22nd November 2018 will take place the 3rd Forum of Regional and Local Economic Development in the Albanian port town of Vlorë.
The Forum, to which participants from the Western Balkan countries will attend, was supported from its first edition by the European Academy of the Regions and organised by its Albanian partner, the Center for European Policy Studies for Regional and Local Development.
