This new section to our website will be constantly updated in order to keep you abreast with the latest developments.

FoE Malta recently hosted the final Project Partner meeting to evaluate and close a two-year long project – System:Reset. Partners from Austria, Estonia, Cyprus, Croatia, Macedonia, and of course Malta, all met at Il-Majjistral Nature and History Park while Ireland, Denmark, and Spain joined in via an online call in this three-day hybrid event. The aim of System:Reset was to introduce young people from across Europe, and from under-represented communities, to decision making processes to build strong, collective visions that are both socially just and ecologically sound. This will not only increase awareness of our current social and environmental issues, but it is hoped that this will encourage the EU and national policy makers to act on the demands and solutions proposed by these young people.
