This research report on domestic violence in Albania is the product of close cooperation between the Albanian Institute of Statistics (INSTAT) and United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), with financial support from the government of Sweden. This project is based on the recognition that national data on domestic violence in Albania is necessary to develop effective policies and action plans for response, intervention, and protection in domestic violence cases, particularly violence against women. INSTAT staff and external contributors were the main technical experts who designed and implemented this second National Population-based Survey, which is based on the experiences of the Baseline Survey of 2007.
