Brief Description of NGO/Group
SOS Malta aims to aid people experiencing times of crisis and to empower them by providing support services and opportunities to implement development and change in their country. SOS Malta works with local and international organisations to assist socially disadvantaged groups in improving their quality of life. It encourages advocacy on behalf of social causes as well as promotes models of good care and practice. SOS Malta initially started working in overseas development, emergency relief and livelihood programmes. While maintaining these overseas areas of activity, the organisation over time developed other areas of activities, having more of a local dimension. As such, SOS Malta is now built upon 4 pillars of action, these being:
• Overseas Development
• Social Integration
• Research and Training
• Volunteering
Within these pillars SOS Malta has an excellent track record of the implementation of diverse projects closely involving civil society in both their implementation and in terms of their target groups, and has developed considerable expertise in these areas.
