On September 10th, BBC World Questions will come to Albania to debate the future of the country in the capital city, Tirana. Economic development, corruption, migration and the cost of living will be up for discussion with a panel of leading politicians and campaigners.

The BBC World Service programme, which puts people and their questions at the heart of the debate, will be presented by the BBC correspondent, Jonny Dymond. He will chair the hour-long debate which will be led by questions from a live audience.

The panel will include:

• Lavdrim Krashi – Member of the Socialist Party
• Lulzim Basha – Leader of the Euro Atlantic Democrats
• Edlira Cepani – Lawyer and human rights activist
• Fiori Hoxhaj – Youth campaigner

Gwenan Roberts, Commissioning Editor, BBC World Service English, said: “BBC World Questions is arriving in Albania for the first time to discuss the key issues impacting people across the country. We look forward to bringing the debate in Tirana to all our listeners around the world.”

The programme will be recorded in front of a live audience at the Rogner Hotel.
