During an official visit to Tirana, Albania, Greek Education Minister Andreas Loverdos held talks with his Albanian counterpart Lindita Nikolla. They discussed the possibility of a bilateral cooperation in writing books for the education of children of Albania’s Greek minority. The two officials signed a cooperation protocol, agreeing that there would be a mixed textbook review committee, and clarified the methodology that the committee would use.

The Greek Minister concluded that the relevant discussion on the two countries’ cooperation in primary and secondary education levels will begin at another meeting scheduled to be held in Athens in early 2015. "Our universities, our structures in primary and secondary education, our research centers, our archives, our libraries and other areas in education between the two countries should come in closer contact to develop partnerships," said Loverdos.

Regarding the Albanian migrants living in Greece, as well as the Greek community of Albania, Nikolla highlighted that they play the role of "bridges of friendship and cooperation between the two neighboring countries. In particular, cooperation in the education and sports fields widens and solidifies those friendship bridges."
