Humanists Malta, as long-term proponents of updated and comprehensive Human Rights and Equality legislation, were pleased to be invited to a discussion with officials from the Office of the Prime Minister. The Government is now returning to a subject - on which no progress had been made since 2020 - with forthcoming proposals for legislation including the establishment of a Human Rights and Equality Commission in line with EU law. The meeting with our Chair, James Buħagiar, and Vice-Chair, Christian Colombo, was positive and constructive. We look forward to seeing the draft of the proposed legislation. #humanism #secularhumanism #equality #EqualityNow #malta #malta🇲🇹 #maltagram #maltatoday #humanrights ... See MoreSee Less

Strengthening Humanist Bonds Across Borders 🌍🤝Humanists Malta’s own James Buhagiar had the pleasure of meeting Per Henning Dahl from the Norwegian Humanist Association (@HumanEtiskForbund) for an informal catch-up in Sliema last month in late February 2026.Humanism has always thrived on connection and the simple belief that when we come together with open minds, we can create real change. Over coffee, James and Per Henning discussed the shared challenges and goals of our movements, focusing on key themes like:Assisted Dying and the right to bodily autonomy.Secularism in modern society.The importance of Humanist Celebrations in marking life's milestones.Meeting fellow humanists from across Europe reminds us that we’re part of a global community working toward dignity, compassion, and reason. Here’s to continued cooperation between Malta and Norway—and to all the bridges we’ll keep building along the way! 💙✨#Humanism #HumanistsMalta #InternationalCollaboration #Secularism #Sliema #MaltaNorway #secularhumanism #Malta #malta #malta🇲🇹 #maltagram #lovemalta #norway #secularism #secularism #bodilyautonomy #bodilyautonomyisahumanright #celebrations #celebrations🎉 #Commemoration ...

🎙️ Our Chairperson James Buhagiar was on PBS recently, taking part in a radio podcast discussion on Living Wills — a topic close to our hearts and central to our advocacy work.James outlined Humanists Malta's position clearly: every competent adult has the right to decide what medical treatment they consent to or refuse, and those wishes must be legally binding — even when they can no longer speak for themselves.We warmly welcome the Living Wills Bill and commend all those who have worked tirelessly to bring this forward. This is a milestone for personal autonomy, human dignity, and a more compassionate Malta. 🙏🎧 You can watch the full discussion in the video linked below — James features from around the 28-minute mark.www.facebook.com/watch/live/?mibextid=wwXIfr&ref=watch_permalink&v=1324434729519623&rdid=pATa0mV2...#LivingWills #HumanistsMalta #PersonalAutonomy #HumanDignity #Malta #humanism #dignityindeath #dignity #HumanDignity #humandignity #secularism #secularhumanism #malta #malta🇲🇹 #maltagram #lovemalta #mercy #compassion ...

The day after International Women’s Day (IDW) is just as important as the day itself. 💜We hope you had a great International Women's Day (IDW) yesterday! Celebrating women’s achievements isn’t a one‑day commitment — it’s an ongoing effort to build a world where dignity, autonomy, and equality are lived realities.Eleanor Roosevelt’s reminder speaks directly to a humanist worldview:Human worth is intrinsic, not granted by authority, tradition, or expectation. Humanism calls us to create conditions where every person can stand confidently in their own value, supported by a society grounded in fairness, empathy, and reason.As we reflect on IWD 2026, we renew our commitment at Humanists Malta to the work that continues every day — challenging inequality, defending human rights and Secularism, and strengthening the voices that too often go unheard. #humanrights #secularism #humanism #secularhumanism #malta #malta🇲🇹 #maltagram #MaltaDaily #maltatoday #lovemalta #womensrights #womensrightsmatter #feminism #preach #WomensVoices #IWD #IWD2026 #genderequality #genderequality #GenderEqualityNow ...

🌍💜✨International Women’s Day – Celebrating Progress, Demanding EqualityToday, on International Women’s Day, we honour a movement born from courage, solidarity, and the determination to build a fairer world. What began as collective action for labour rights and suffrage has grown into a global call to uphold the dignity and equality of every human being.As humanists, we recognise that the fight for women’s rights is inseparable from the fight for human rights. This day reminds us that progress is never automatic — it is won through persistence, advocacy, and the unwavering belief that every person deserves autonomy, opportunity, and freedom from discrimination.International Women’s Day is not only a moment to reflect on historic victories, but also a renewed commitment to challenge the social, cultural, and political barriers that continue to limit women’s lives. Around the world, countless individuals and communities carry forward this work every day — resisting injustice, expanding freedoms, and shaping a future where equality is not the exception but the norm.At Humanists Malta, we reaffirm our dedication to a society grounded in compassion, fairness, and human dignity. We stand with all those who strive to create a world where every person can thrive without fear or prejudice.💜 Here’s to the women who paved the way, those who continue the struggle, and those who will lead tomorrow.Equality for one is equality for all.#IWD2026 #InternationalWomensDay #HumanistsMalta #HumanRights #Equality #HumanismInAction #secularhumanism #secularism #humanism #malta❤️ #womensrights #womensrightsmatter #womensrightsarehumanrights ...
