Abstract
Tirana is the only city in Albania to have experienced a steady population increase over the past thirty years, due to strong internal migration and its attractiveness due to its great economic, social and cultural development. Its urban development is recent and relates to its political history. The demographic context nevertheless shows a high percentage of families at risk of poverty The contribution attempts, by analysing one of the strategic projects of the new Tirana2030 Urban Plan, the one concerning schools and education, to reflect on the role of planning in the challenge towards the transition to an urban proximity model.
