ALBANIA

The rural life of the people in Albania is mainly characterized by small-scale agriculture. During the communist period, a process of urbanisation and industrialisation was accelerated, which is why there were large migrations into the cities. Nevertheless, after 1990 many Albanians emigrated to neighbouring EU countries in the hope of a better life. Even today many of them still earn their living abroad as seasonal workers and nursing staff. Although Albania's flora and fauna are one of the richest in Europe, a sharp decline in biodiversity has been observed in recent decades. The country has to struggle with severe environmental pollution and an inadequate waste disposal system.
