Minister Sahin shows how she managed the opening process after the earthquake

When the September earthquake fell, we created a functioning protocol at the moment an emergency occurred. We have all the school leaders in the Cusap, so you can see that there are social networks that have enabled us to communicate even with the most remote areas in Albania, and the first question for the directors is why you can get to school and see visually whether your school is damaged by”.

“The first information collected by the directors that is unverified because they are not engineers placed in an Excel and then share jobs with people who can go to the ground and verify whether they are serious damage, whether they can be repaired quickly or it is damage that makes school uninhabitable at the moment”

We've done this thing”

The one in the Kosovo District B area has shown about the two options it presented at the government meeting the opening of all schools in Albania that had proved to be in order and the closure of only those who had not proved to be safe or closing all schools in earthquake-hit countries.

After we made sure that we're alive and we're all good, the second requirement for school principals was to get out and see which schools have problems. We've been brought a list of 200 schools which were searched on November 27th and 28th by municipal engineers and those coming from Kosovo”.

“We had the idea of which schools can open and which will not be opened by November 28th. The problem was that there were many other quakes after the main earthquake. A school that was declared in order by engineers on November 28th did not go well on December 1st, after the constant quakes of”.

We asked for help once again from engineers who came from Kosovo and other engineers who were there to make the decision or open all schools that were in order and to keep our individual schools shut down that were not right or to close all schools in areas affected by the” earthquake.

These were the two options I presented at the government meeting. After the public part of the government meeting was closed, we had little discussion to consider two other”.

The first “, if we close all schools, what effect it will have on working parents and wanting kids somewhere. Second, if one city opens up and the other does not open up, what the psychological effect it has on people who have lost their home and must send the child to school until the school next to him is closed. Are we sending a security message or not?

I said more than in a city or open all schools or don't even open them. So we decided to open schools throughout Albania where there was no earthquake and we made two more opening dates depending on the damage caused in Lezha County, Durres and Tirana”.
