Mission and Objectives

SOS Malta is a Maltese-registered Voluntary Organisation set up in 1991, which 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.

Main Projects / Activities

SOS Malta operates on four pillars: Overseas Development Social Solidarity Research and Training Volunteering Project Managers head each pillar and work towards the implementation of projects within their areas of competence. SOS Malta has vast experience in the implementation of EU projects and has been successful with EuropeAid, European Refugee Fund, European Integration Fund, Community Action Programmes and National Government Funding contracts. SOS Malta has now been appointed the Fund Operator for the EEA Grants and will manage the NGO Malta Programme. n
