Call for researchers and academics to undertake research projects on transitional justice in Albania

The OSCE Presence in Albania, in co-operation with the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung Office in Albania, launched a call on 7 September 2018 for researchers to undertake research projects on transitional justice in Albania.

Ten Albanian scholars will engage in one-year research projects on the topic of transitional justice in Albania. They will be guided by three world-renowned experts on transitional justice through intensive training and tutoring. The programme will include an autumn school to be held from 26 to 30 November 2018 in Tirana.

By involving the public – specifically students and academics – in a discussion on rule of law and human rights violations under Albania’s communist regime, and by fostering research on transitional justice as a whole, the project aims at leading to a better-informed and facts-based discourse in Albania about lessons to be learned both from the past and from other societies going through a period of transition.

Interested candidates can apply here until 07 October 2018. For further information please send an email to law-al@osce.org
