You are invited to a gather for all the Friends of the Earth that made 2022 a fantastic year! We appreciate your contributions toward our organisation during the past year, and we’d love to get together, celebrate and enjoy each other’s company to close the year.
You will be greeted with 1 welcome drink & some nibbles. Anyone who would like to stay on for pumpkin soup, dips & bread please let us know by Monday 28th November in the form here because soup is limited. A 6 euro donation can be paid at the door for the food.
With your help we have had a very productive year, and our team has grown rapidly, with 9 new staff members joining the organisation. Our projects have included the Ucuh tar-raba exhibition which featured the images and stories of 10 Maltese farmers, captured by Darrin Zammit Lupi, and we organised a Climate Action Camp where a group of enthusiastic youth participants learnt about the links between climate change and migration. We raised over 10,000 euros during the Earth Garden Festival and other activities which will help kick start the restoration of the bakery in Comino.
The Green Resource Centre has been very busy this year, we restarted our community garden, established a weekly environmental youth hub and planned several activities. And, we celebrated some great successes including the major win at Mzieb & Ahrax in collaboration 4 other NGOs and as FoEM we brought the energy supply debate into the national arena, specifically in relation to the climate impacts of our energy sources and finally we collected over 1,000 signatures for the European-wide #ClimateOfChange campaign.
We have already have lots planned for next year… So, join us on Friday 2nd December 6.30pm at the Green Resource Centre in Floriana, here.
