About Bushat

Bushat district has 25,000 residents on the electoral register and is therefore one of the largest council constituents of Northern Albania, falling within the region of Shkodra. It is well established that the district of Bushat is situated within one of the poorest areas of Europe. In the recent years we realised many first-rate projects and the residents can now enjoy some of the essential utilities such as healthcare and a good water & electricity supply. Also we repaired many roads and some of our schools. Cooperation, urban development and above all dynamism based upon a democratic foundation are the tools with which the current Council of Bushat works.

As Mayor from this Commune I am proud what we have realised the past years, and I believe that we are an outstanding positive example of a commune in its development phase. The past 15 years this commune worked hand-in-hand alongside with foreign NGOs from Spain, Italy, The Netherlands, Austria and Sweden. With this website we hope to inform you about the commune Bushat and our local government. A lot of information is coming about a recent report; “Designing an Environmental Action Plan for the Commune of Bushat”, implemented by the Regional Environmental Center (REC), Albania, fundend and supported by the Spanish Agency for International Cooperation for Development. The Commune Bushat is ready for collaboration and cooperation with International Companies, and we are looking forward to find a European Partner Commune for sharing experience. Enjoy your visit at our site, and please contact us when you have questions.

Zef Hila, Mayor Commune Bushat.
