Time for action! Joint NGO letter urging free PrEP distribution

We joined our colleagues in the LGBTIQ+ sector to issue the below letter. We are urging Malta to live up to its promise: free PrEP distribution!

The letter tells Malta that the time for words has long passed. It is now time for action!

We’ve sent a joint letter to Members of the European Parliament: where is solidarity in the new Pact on Asylum and Migration?

Together with friends all over the EU, we’ve sent a joint letter to Members of the European Parliament. Our letter flags our worries in relation to on-going discussions on the new Pact on Asylum and Migration. In particular, we question the positioning of solidarity, as a key value all Member States should be working on.

3 fab mini clips on building communities!

We’re so happy to launch 3 fab mini clips that talk about integration and building communities!

The clips, partially financed by the EU in our project 2incING, capture one of our key messages: let’s stop treating migrants and refugees as objects to be managed and dealt with! Instead, let’s bring them into the discussions about their lives. Let’s listen to them. Let’s respect their identities. In doing so, our own communities get stronger, more resilient and more colourful.

When migrants and refugees speak for themselves…

…their narratives are more authentic and hard-hitting! We are super happy to share a Shadow Report on integration issues, research and produced by a group of migrants and refugees in Malta.

Produced in the context of our 2incING project, the report is the first-ever technical submission giving a direct and unfiltered voice to migrants and refugees. This is what happens when migrants and refugees speak for themselves!

The Shadow Report, available in English and in Maltese, looks at several aspects of life in Malta. It provides a general overview of migration in Malta and then dives into specific themes: documentation, employment, citizenship, marriage, housing, asylum, and statelessness.

An interesting blend of human stories and technical observations, the Shadow Report marks a significant turning point for our own work with migrants and refugees.
