AFRICAN MEDIA ASSOCIATION MALTA is a media NGO registered in 2014 that promotes the positive contribution of African migration in Malta with News, Empowerment and Advocacy.
Our mission is to support African migrants through communication with broadcast news, stories and information relating to living in Malta and in Europe through our online community radio, web magazine, video clips and podcasts. We empower immigrants with capacity building activities through our integration projects ( local and EU funded) that impart life and soft skills, media and digital literacy. In terms of advocacy, we identify special challenges of the African immigrants in Malta and lobby for positive changes by bringing them to the attention of Governments and other relevant authorities, and to achieve that, we belong to, and work with numerous advocacy groups active in Malta and abroad.
The main projects of AMAM are related to raising awareness of the challenges faced by African Migrants in Malta and working for their integration into society.
- “Empowering Communities” is an ongoing video project giving voice to successful immigrants in Malta. Additionally, the RadioLit project funded by the US Embassy, the PodcastInc project, funded by the Erasmus + are all aimed at imparting medical literacy skills to migrants and create a pool of citizen journalists. The IDEAL-M project co-funded by the European Commission and the Maltese government is about raising awareness on the danger of irregular migration. Other projects such as UpGrad_Me, UpGrad_Me.20, A Part of EU 2030, INCLUDE-CE, all Erasmus + projects, and many others are aimed at empowering immigrants with digital skills, literacy skills, the Agenda 2030, Circular economy and other important concepts and useful skills for a good integration.
