The focus group discussion revealed that the knowledge concerning whistleblowing and its practice in the Albanian context were limited. Nevertheless, participants expressed the view that introducing this instrument as a practice in the Albanian context constitutes a positive initiative that would help to strengthen the principles of good governance and transparence in Albania. The main findings of this focus group will be incorporated to a study on whistleblowers that will be presented at a national conference on the 15th of November 2013.
