Residents resist fencing at Vjosa–Narta wetlands; Flamingo movement begins

← Back to Dashboard
📅 23 May 2026 📍 Albania

Residents and activists arrived at Pishë Poro beach after fencing appeared on a protected coastal landscape and removed it, according to the community movement’s timeline. The resistance opposed a luxury tourism project and developed into the Flamingo Revolution, with protests reaching Tirana by the end of May. Organizers connect wetland protection to public access, transparency and opposition to investor-led development; project links and allegations in this current dispute should be read alongside independent reporting and environmental assessments.
