Real partnerships. Real people. Real change.

Our work in Albania

Transformation begins when opportunity meets purpose.

Our approach brings together education, discipleship, social care, and leadership development. Each matters on its own. Together, they help equip people to strengthen their families, communities, and the next generation.

Epos International works alongside local partners rather than building a separate system. Your generosity helps provide the resources, training, and encouragement that make this work possible.

Opening doors through learning, scholarships, and resources.

02 · Discipleship

Equipping faith leaders and strengthening local churches.

03 · Social Care

Responding to the needs of children and vulnerable families.

04 · Leadership

Investing in people who will invest in others.

Every child deserves the chance to learn and grow.

Through our partnership with Iliria, a K–9 school in Tirana, Epos helps strengthen access to quality education in a nurturing environment.

Support can help meet practical needs such as student scholarships, classroom materials, school improvements, and the resources educators need to serve children well.

We also seek to extend educational opportunity to children and families facing financial and social barriers, including Roma communities.

Equipping leaders who will serve generations.

Epos partners with the International School of Theology and Leadership (ISTL) in Tirana to support theological education, leadership training, and the preparation of people serving churches and communities.

Scholarships and educational resources help students pursue training and carry their learning into meaningful service. The wider ISTL alumni community has contributed to planting more than 150 churches across the Balkans.

We believe investing in a leader is an investment in every life that leader will influence.

Discipleship & community

Strengthening the people who strengthen communities.

Faith formation, mentorship, and healthy local churches have long been central to our international partnerships.

We support local leaders and ministries as they teach, serve, care for their neighbors, and create places of belonging. This work is rooted in long-term relationships and a commitment to helping local leadership flourish.

Social care & humanitarian engagement

Compassion that becomes practical care.

Our humanitarian focus includes children, families, widows, single mothers, and people facing vulnerable circumstances. We seek to connect trusted local initiatives with the resources they need to respond to real challenges.

Children & families

Education support, essential resources, and care for children whose circumstances create barriers to opportunity.

Community well-being

Supporting local responses to needs such as food, safety, and access to practical care.

Protection & dignity

Leadership education and awareness around human rights, exploitation, and trafficking prevention.

Leadership & global engagement

Change lasts when local leaders are equipped.

Epos has invested in international leadership development and mentoring for more than two decades. In Albania, we collaborate with educators, ministry teams, and organizational leaders who understand the needs and strengths of their own communities.

Our broader work also creates opportunities for participants in Mirador and Attraversa to grow in global perspective and discover how purposeful engagement can translate into lasting service.
