Turning the Tables (TTT) is a migrant led initiative which aims to tackle integration related matters leading to policy changes. TTT is being funded through the Learning-Exchanging-Integrating Project as part of the implementation of the Migrant Integration Strategy and Action Plan (Vision 2020) issued by the Government of Malta in December of 2017. This project is part-financed by the Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund.
The project encourages the host country and newcomers to integrate, live and work together to maximise the sense of belonging for migrants residing in Malta and to allow integration in the Maltese society.
Turning the Tables will be organising conferences to discuss different topics chosen by migrant communities which represent challenges in the daily lives of migrants. The selected topics include:
Each topic was discussed and developed through a specific working group during a pre-conference which is held prior to the main conference. The aim of the working groups was to raise and discuss policy proposals which were then presented during the main conference. A researcher was also documenting such discussions, followed by development, document finding and finally publication. These publications can also be used as an advocacy tool.
