The Director of the “Together for Life” Association, Eglantina Bardhi, signed contracts with the six winning organizations from the sub-grant scheme within the framework of the project “Supporting Participation, Accountability, and Civil Empowerment” (SPACE), financially supported by the European Commission.
The sub-grant scheme constitutes a vital component of the SPACE project and is divided into two phases. The specific objective of the Call for Proposals published by TFL was to provide financial support to local CSOs from different regions of Albania, giving them the opportunity to promote transparency and accountability of local public institutions in the health and education sectors, while simultaneously working towards advocacy and change.
The Together for Life Association is dedicated to working with and supporting local organizations to engage the community in advocacy for the improvement of local and central health and education policies, and increasing the transparency of responsible central and local institutions.
Winning projects of the first phase:
- “Law Students on the Front Line against Corruption” – ALTRI Center
- “Empowering Roma and Egyptian Women for Inclusive Decision-Making in Education and Health” – SH.D.F.K.SH.P

The SPACE project is being implemented by the Together for Life Association, in collaboration with BIRN Albania, Qëndresa Qytetare, and Destiny Center for Excellence.
