Malta Resource Centre

Homepage

Welcome to the Malta Resource Centre for Civil Society NGOs, an SOS Malta initiative to support and strengthen civil society NGOs in Malta.

Malta Resource Centre (MRC) was set up in 2004 following Malta’s membership in the EU.

The main aim of MRC is to provide capacity building as a means to help NGOs and groups working for social change, development, health, environment, culture and the fight against poverty and social exclusion become more effective and efficient and better equipped to operate and participate within the European Union, specifically to influence policies and plans and access EU funds. Our vision is to provide stronger identity for the NGO sector and to develop structured systems of NGOs representation

This is done through the setting up of networks, providing a forum for sharing good and useful practices, provision of training and consultation, research, projects development, providing technical assistance for applying and managing EU funding and the promotion and development of corporate social responsibility (CSR).

MRC is part of SOS Malta a non-profit, non governmental organisation. It is independent of Government and any political party or organization.

Capacity Building
MRC organises various training programmes, courses, seminars and workshops focusing mainly on EU funding and capacity building

Administrative back up to Networks/ NGO Federation

This means that the NGOs which are member organisations of the networks/ federation can focus on the content and core work especially to influence policies and plans.
