Our Mission and Vision
ACI’s mission is to fortify the center-right and conservative movement in Albania by advocating for democratic governance, national security, and economic prosperity. We seek to inspire a renewed focus on the values of free markets, individual liberties, limited government, and the sanctity of private property and family. With the ever-growing challenges facing our nation and region, from stabilocracy to foreign geopolitical influence, ACI is focused on promoting policies that not only defend Albania’s interests but also cultivate a resilient and prosperous society rooted in traditional values and national pride.
We are committed to educating the next generation of leaders, offering sound policy solutions from economic policy, to national security and international relations, education, healthcare, jurisprudence and good governance, and driving change through research, advocacy, and engagement with both local and international partners.
ACI aims to counter adversarial external influences and advance Albania’s rightful place in a strong Europe, with robust alliances with the United States and the United Kingdom, alongside other Western democracies.

Policy conferences
In the past few years, members of our leadership team have successfully organized some of the biggest international conferences that have ever taken place in Albania, and helped start important discussions for the future of the country. Our team is continuously invited to the biggest conferences taking place in Europe, and has developed strong relationships with many center right, conservative parties and organizations across Europe and in the United States.
The 15th Anniversary of NATO conference was the first event in 2024 that some of the co-founders of the ACI helped organize, with the participation of former Ministers of foreign affairs and of defense from both political sides, Members of Parliament, diplomats and security experts.
We were honored with the virtual discussions of General Jim Jones, Nato deputy secretary general H.E. Mircea Geona, General David Petraeus (CIA Director, 2011-2012), Congressman Robert Aderholt, General Wesley Clark, Admiral Giampaolo Di Paula, Franz Josef Jung, etc.
The event was followed by the Forum on the Future of Albania, that brought together for the first time in Albania, the Heritage Foundation, Nazione Futura, Center for Fundamental Rights and the Ordo Iuris Institute, with greetings from His Emminence Cardinal Ernest Simoni Troshani, Member of the European Parliament, Carlo Fidanza, and the former Director of International Relations of the Conservative Party of the United Kingdom, Philippa Broom.
Our team has had successful collaborations with the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung and George C. Marshall Center.
