4.1 Presence in Albania Montenegro, and Serbia) as well as Kosovo were represented by relevant experts from their authorities, including police, prosecution, and border guards, as well as from civil society and key religious communities. Albania, as the host of the event, was represented and supported by the highest political level. Under the guidance of international experts on countering violent extremism and terrorism, participants analyzed two scenarios developed by the Albanian intelligence service which were based on real cases and identified risks and threats, as well as the actions and measures to be taken. These recommendations, together with the experiences gained during the event, enabled participants to identify a road map for further development of their capacities to counter violent extremism and terrorism. Trafficking in Human Beings & Migration-related Crime Seven co-ordination meetings between police and prosecutors enabled the Presence and the National Anti-Trafficking Coordinator (NATC) to jointly develop recommendations for the improvement of the investigation of human trafficking offences. The recommendations included proposals for changes to the Criminal Code, currently before the Albanian Assembly, and to the amended Criminal Procedure Code. Regular co-ordination and information exchange on trafficking for labour exploitation was established between the Labour Inspectorate and the police with Presence support. The working group composed of the Presence, the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and the International Organization for Migration (IOM) advised the Government on updating irregular migrants pre-screening procedures and proposed several action points to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Albanian State Police that will be addressed in 2017. The South Eastern Europe NATCs meeting, hosted by the Presence and the NATC, resulted in recommendations on harmonization of procedures and regular co-ordination with regards to unaccompanied minors, which reflected to a large extent the joint procedures endorsed by the NATCs of Tirana, Pristina and Podgorica in December. The findings of the needs analysis were incorporated in local action plans on the protection of street children adopted by three municipalities. 109 of the trained child protection professionals contributed to the protection of over 300 children removed from the streets in 2016, according to Government data. Local level action plans for the protection of children in street situation were developed by the Presence and endorsed by the municipalities of Durrës, Vlora, Korça, Fier, Elbasan and Shkodra. Border Security and Management / Customs Although Albania has made some internationally recognized progress in border management (such as harmonization of legislation with international standards, completion of the Hot Pursuit protocols, visa liberalization, opening of shared border crossing points and increased women representation in the border police), this still remains an issue of concern in Albania.
