The aim of the INSIST-VAT project is to set up a training programme at the Agricultural University of Tirana (AUT) involving national and regional stakeholders, to serve as the basis for Albania’s agricultural knowledge and innovation system. This project is designed to meet the objectives set for the AUT by the Albanian Ministry of Agriculture. These are to design a ‘producers’ training centre’ and to offer training courses tailored to the needs of farmers and extension agents.

A dedicated website will be online soon!
