MALTA FEDERATION OF ORGANISATIONS PERSONS WITH DISABILITY

The Malta Federation of Organisations Persons with Disability was founded in 1970 to be the national representative, in both local and international fora, for the Maltese disability sector. It is constituted from the active non-governmental organisations working in the disability sector and from persons and corporations who are directly and/or indirectly linked to the disability sector in Malta.
MFOPD is the Malta representative of the European Disability Forum (EDF), Inclusion Europe, the European Network on Independent Living (ENIL), the Commonwealth Disabled People’s Forum and CITIZENStandards. At national level it represents the disability sector on the CRPD council, the Civil Society Committee within MCESD and on the Platform of Human Rights in Malta (PHROM).
