‘Right to Nature – Inspiring Active Citizenship’ report launched
The ‘Right to Nature – Inspiring Active Citizenship’ report was launched during the ‘Activists by the Sea’ event organised by Friends of the Earth Malta in conjunction with Front Harsien ODZ. The report presents the outcomes of the Right to Nature seminar held last March, which covered five aspects of environmental management in Malta, namely:
  • MEPA (Environmental Resource Authority and Planning Authority);
  • Sustainable Agriculture and Rural Development;
  • Natura 2000;
  • Outside Development Zones and Scheduled Areas;
  • Spatial Planning;
  • Management of Water Resources.
Each topic is presented with background information and identifies both threats and opportunities, with suggestions for improvements in each sector. The online version of the report can be found here.
The seminar was organised with the intention of inspiring active citizenship by starting a discussion on the main issues in the environmental sphere and extracting ways and means to tackle these issues by concerned citizens.
The seminar was attended by a varied group of people of all ages and backgrounds. The five topicschosen do not represent the entirety of the environmental dimension, however they proved to be a sound basis for healthy discussions.
