Malta is a “multilingual” island with a rich history of migration from all corners of
the Mediterranean. Focus on real-life questions about migration, culture, religion
and language and the interface between these and socio-political issues. Through
meetings with academics and cultural actors and visits to ethnic neighborhoods,
engage in conversations about these questions, learn about the rich history and
the current situation on the island where Maltese, English and other languages are
spoken. Through visits to the National War Museum and the Malta at War Museum
as well as cultural sites, including a trip to the beautiful old cities of Rabat and Mdina,
understand on-going struggles of migration and occupation.
