Tirana and Prishtina are seeing the unification of the education system

For the second time that Albania and Kosovo joint the education system. The first time that was united during the Second World War, when Albania was undwr fascism ocupation.

The idea will be approved by the new government composed particularly for the integration of albanian nation, Berisha-Meta in September, 2009

Begins the "Great Dream" of unification of Albanian nation firstly to have a primer, a history and a common culture in Albanian areas may soon become reality. The declaration comes by the Minister of Education, Science and Technology of Kosovo, Enver Hoxhaj.

But not only that. The strategy is available in Tirana. The debate on this is expected to begin immediately after the consolidation of the new government in Albania. The academic Mehmet Kraja says that this initiative is to do very son as possible, but the estimates as necessary. While for another Albanian academic and education expert, Dukagjin Pupovci hi says that is less likely that the education system can unite all Albanian lands, because these territories are located in five different states have their own specifications.

Firstly, the unification of programs and textbooks

"We as a people in urgent need to integrate two important segments of national and social life, it is culture and education", estimates Kraja. According to him, it's not normal that a small nation such as Albanians, despite living in different spaces divided politically, to have such different systems of education.

Kraja adds that the unification of curricula and textbooks has to do with politics, but with the obtaining of knowledge by the younger generations.

"We have to create a unique system of education. In such circumstances, we will have better quality textbooks, it enables the circulation of people, other studies from a university ...", he said.

Precisely this is the impact it hopes Education Minister Enver Hoxhaj, then have a unifying part of the educational system. Quality will increase significantly after unification, this minister is convinced Hoxhaj. According to him, Kosovo is very interested in that debate for the unification of the educational system throughout the Albanian lands to begin soon.
