Visit the stand of the Malta Sociological Association and the Department of Sociology, Faculty of Arts, University of Malta, at this year's Science in the City festival and take part in our exciting hands-on activity:
Design Your Ideal Village
Imagine a village that champions Justice, Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity (J.E.D.I). Using miniature building models, you’ll have the chance to create a community that reflects your vision of a perfect, harmonious society.
Guided by sociologists, you'll learn about the value of Social Impact Assessments (SIAs) in building equitable and inclusive communities. Discover how thoughtful planning can address societal and environmental challenges, promote fairness, and improve the quality of life for everyone.
This activity is perfect for all ages, offering a fun and educational experience that will empower you to think critically about community development.
Through this event, the Malta Sociological Association will be participating in the following initiatives:

Sociologists submit proposals for Malta’s Sustainable Development Strategy
The Malta Sociological Association (MSA) has submitted its feedback to the Government with respect to the public consultation on Sustainable Development Strategy 2050.
“On a macro-level, the MSA believes that over-dependence on construction/land development should be a cause for concern. Malta should look towards more sustainable economic models.”
“The MSA is also proposing that all industrial and construction activities include a plan identifying any negative impact on society/environment resulting from such activities and how the relevant private interests will mitigate against these as well as contribute positively to society in general”.
“The MSA is calling for an extension of the Green Leaders initiative and for the mainstreaming of accessibility in the strategy. One everyday example of this, which is not given enough importance in Malta’s policy process, is the need for accessible pavements.”
“The MSA also emphasizes that extensive deliberation and Social Impact Assessments should be mainstreamed in Malta’s policy process in general, not least in the Sustainable Development Strategy for 2050.”
