From 2024, Albania and other candidate countries are involved in the European Commission’s Rule of Law Mechanism, a tool first introduced in 2020 to monitor rule of law development across the European space. This Shadow Report focuses on the third section of the Commission’s 2024 Rule of Law report dedicated to Media Freedom and Pluralism and provides an updated analysis of the Albanian media landscape, pointing out not only positive steps forward but above all remaining and emerging challenges. It is complemented by a set of detailed recommendations urging competent authorities and relevant stakeholders to take action and strengthen their commitment to the protection of media freedom in line with European and international standards.

The shadow report is also available in Albanian.
