CORE Platform Annual Report 2017-2018

website, serve as an interactive space for learning and knowledge exchange. These are very
much linked to the public campaign that is being led by SOS Malta. The campaign’s aim is to
engage citizens and encourage them to push businesses and local authorities to become
engaged in tackling SDGs at a local level.
In order to create more engagement and foster a cooperative environment, CORE Platform
has also organised participatory stakeholder meetings and workshops involving all relevant
actors to foster a cooperative environment. These events were held in Gzira and Mellieha,
which are the two pilot localities for our project. Both local councils, as well as a number of
businesses and local organisations have been very supportive of this project and they have
helped us on a number of occasions when it came to the logistics and preparation of our
events.
More meetings are being planned for 2018 and the beginning of 2019. All of the work being
done will ultimately serve towards the development of local sustainable development
action plans for Mellieha and Gzira.
