Summary
The purpose of the study is to contribute, through its results, to the strengthening

to improving the Albanian legislation on the protection of victims’ rights.

The study is organized in five chapters: in the first two chapters the study

human trafficking, followed by the regulatory mechanisms of the Albanian legal
framework in the fight against this phenomenon.

EU, both in the area of THB and the rights of victims. The fifth chapter provides
recommendations to harmonize the legislation in cases of lack of compliance.
