TIRANA, Albania - More than 200 people attended a conference on the theme of "A Healthy Family for a Healthy Society," held in December 1997 and sponsored by the Albanian Bahá'í community.

Representatives from the Ministry of Health and some 17 non-governmental organizations were present at the conference, which also received coverage in the Albanian news media.

Organized by an ad hoc women's task force, the conference included artistic programs in the evening.
