On 28th January 2026, the Local Council on Public Safety (LCPS) meeting was held in the Municipality of Malesi e Madhe, Shkodra marking the first meeting for 2026. This meeting was organised in the framework of the implementation of the Grant Scheme in cooperation with the organization “Woman to Woman” and with the participation and cooperation of representatives from the local level institutions such as the municipality, police organization and education system. The meeting focused on the presentation and discussion of the results of the Local Safety Measurement System (LSMS), based on data collected from the survey of citizens in two sub-areas of the municipality.
The representatives of the SCPA Programme emphasized the importance of inter-institutional cooperation at the local level, as a key element for effectively addressing public safety issues. It was also emphasized that the study should not be seen only as a statistical report, but as a practical data tool, through which local institutions can reflect on issues that citizens perceive as positive, as well as on areas where more attention and institutional support are required.
Discussions among the members of the KVSP focused on community perceptions of security, and identified concerns that would be further addressed through coordinated work between local structures. The meeting contributed to strengthening inter-institutional dialogue and laid the foundations for identifying priorities and concrete interventions in order to increase community security and trust.
