Participatory Constitution Making

December 31, 1998 Posted by Scott Carlson Innovations and Solutions, Program Design and Implementation Management

Albanian Participatory Constitution Making Project, which introduced Albania’s first and only post-communist Constitution. New-Rule CEO Scott Carlson served as a director of the secretariat that stewarded the participatory constitutional process.  The secretariat was called the Administrative Center for the Coordination of Assistance and Public Participation (“ACCAPP”).  During an 18 month process, ACCAPP collected and distributed information, organized polls and civic education, and provided training.  Although Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) and the Albanian government supported these efforts, ACCAPP retained its independence and was financed largely by NGOs and foreign governments.
