Diber: Trails & Tradition (D2T) is an innovative project being implemented in Diber municipality, Albania. Financed by USAID and the Swedish Embassy under the Tourism as a Leading Edge programme for promoting sustainable integrated agro-tourism, the project is being implemented by the Albanian Local Community Development Fund (ALCDF) and CNVP Albania.

The focus of the project is on capacity building of rural communities using: coaching, training and hands-on technical assistance; multi-stakeholder and participatory processes; networking; and lobbying on behalf of and between clients.

The D2T Forum has helped to prepare the Tourism Strategy for Diber municipality. This aims to achieve the sustainable management of natural resources, and provide opportunities for individuals and businesses engaged in the tourism sector. The strategy was discussed in the Tourist Information Centre in Peshkopi on 26 April 2018 by representatives of USAID, Diber municipality, ALCDF and CNVP Albania.
