was firstly launched in 2017 in the framework of the project “Environmental Guardians – Let’s protect together what belongs to us”, financed by the US Embassy in Tirana through the Small Grants Programme of the Commission for Democracy.
Along these years our team gathered feedback from third parties and finally decided to give Syri Gjelbër a new visual identity and a new structure of reporting, in order to be more appealing and user friendly to everyone who wishes to report a crime.
The rebranding of this platform was carried out in 2021 in the framework of the project “Protected Areas for Nature and People”, which aims to:
- Improve national policies for Protected Area management and biodiversity conservation;
- Strengthen the accountability of decision makers;
- Raise awareness of the importance of protected areas and biodiversity in general;
- Promote and supporting civic activism; and
- Increase the participation of local communities in the management of protected areas.
