The Embassy of Sweden in Tirana - EU, feminism and democracy. Sweden opened the Embassy in Tirana 2010, however Sweden has been engaged with Albania’s years of transition, democratization and EU-accession thanks to development cooperation since 2001. The Embassy of Sweden’s work is focused on supporting Albania in its EU-integration process. The main priorities are economic development, democracy and human rights, and environment and climate change issues. Sweden has a feminist foreign policy and therefore we emphasize the strengthening of women’s rights, resources and representation in everything we do. Sweden's development cooperation with Albania amounts to approximately 15 million euro annually.
