Migrants' Solidarity Movement is a organisation created in September 2008 in Malta. The board is composed of 4 people who are volunteers. MSM is part of SKOP, a local network of 15 NGOs. The budgetary resources depend on the funding MSM gets a year. Until now, MSM was funded by the European Commission through the Youth Programm.

Mission and Objectives

MSM's overall goal and long-term objective is the creation of an all inclusive, multicultural society, free of racism, xenophobia and discrimination.
We focus on six points:
1.To effect positive changes within Maltese society towards immigration issues.
2.To promote cultural understanding and respect.
3.To encourage the integration of migrants within Maltese society.
4.To promote and campaign for human rights in regards to immigration issues.
5.To provide social support and services to the immigrant population in Malta.
6.To promote cultural activities.

Main Projects / Activities

MSM is currently running the project "Defeating language barriers". Taking a stand against exclusion and fighting marginalization Migrants Solidarity Movement decided to start an English proficiency project which will be offered for free to immigrants wishing to learn and improve their English. Learning English will also help immigrants when they leave Malta to go to other European countries.
The project ‘Defeating Language Barriers’ will run for six months starting from January 2009. The English lessons will run twice a week on a Monday and Wednesday from 6pm to 8pm. They will be held in the General Workers Union building in Valletta and will be run by certified English teachers working on a voluntary basis.
