Via analyses is aimed the Albanian legislation improvement from the responsible institutions, in order to protect the children’s right under the refugee situation. The effective defense will be possible only if the state will insure certified rights under children’s rights convention and government will assist in sharing encumbrance for options ratification in refugee’s children assimilation. In the last years the legislation improvement in relation to the human rights and children’s rights can not be denied.However it can not be denied the fact that most of laws remained just declarative and inapplicable, and did not had the right impact.New legal initiatives should be undertaken.
