Every Life in 19Th and Early 20Th Century Malta
MALTESE HISTORY Unit L Everyday Life and Living Standards Public Health Form 4 1 Unit L.1 – Population, Emigration and Living Standards 1. Demographic growth The population was about 100,000 in 1800, it surpassed the 250,000 mark after World War II and rose to over 300,000 by 1960. A quarter of the population lived in the harbour towns by 1921. This increase in the population caused the fast growth of harbour suburbs and the rural villages. The British were in constant need of skilled labourers for the Dockyard. From 1871 onwards, the younger generation migrated from the villages in search of employment with the Colonial Government. Employment with the British Services reached a peak in the inter-war period (1919-39) and started to decline after World War II. In the 1950s and 1960s the British started a gradual rundown of military personnel in their overseas colonies, including Malta. Before the beginning of the first rundown in 1957, the British Government still employed 27% of the Maltese work force. 2. Maltese emigration The Maltese first became attracted to emigration in the early 19th century. The first organised attempt to establish a Maltese colony of migrants in Corfu took place in 1826. Other successful colonies of Maltese migrants were established in North African and Mediterranean ports in Algiers, Tunis, Bona, Tripoli, Alexandria, Port Said, Cairo, Smyrna, Constantinople, Marseilles and Gibraltar. By 1842 there were 20,000 Maltese emigrants in Mediterranean countries (15% of the population). But most of these returned to Malta sometime or another. Emigration to Mediterranean areas declined rapidly after World War II.

The Sovereign Military Hospitaller Order of St. John of Jerusalem of Rhodes and of Malta – a General History of the Order of Malta
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by OAR@UM Emanuel Buttigieg THE SOVEREIGN MILITARY HOSPITALLER ORDER OF ST. JOHN OF JERUSALEM OF RHODES AND OF MALTA – A GENERAL HISTORY OF THE ORDER OF MALTA INTRODUCTION: HOSPITALLERS Following thirteen years of excavation by the Israel Antiquities Authority, a thousand-year-old structure – once a hospital in Jerusalem – will be open to the public; part of it seems earmarked to serve as a restaurant. 1 In Syria, as the civil war rages on, reports and footage have been emerging of explosions in and around Crac des Chevaliers castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site. 2 During the interwar period (1923–1943), the Italian colonial authorities in the Dodecanese engaged in a wide-ranging series of projects to restore – and in some instances redesign – several buildings on Rhodes, in an attempt to recreate the late medieval/Renaissance lore of the island. 3 Between 2008 and 2013, the European Regional Development Fund provided the financial support necessary for Malta to undertake a large-scale restoration of several kilometres of fortifications, with the aim of not only preserving these structures but also enhancing Malta’s economic and social well- -being.4 Since 1999, the Sainte Fleur Pavilion in the Antananarivo University Hospital Centre in Madagascar has been helping mothers to give birth safely and assisting infants through care and research. 5 What binds together these seemingly disparate, geographically-scattered buildings, all with their stories of hope and despair? All of them – a hospital in Jerusalem, a castle in Syria, structures on Rhodes, fortifications on Malta, and yet another hospital, this time in Madagascar – attest to the constant (but evolving) mission of the Order of Malta “to Serve the Poor and Defend the Faith” over several centuries.

Regenerating the Valletta Grand Harbour Area Abstract
Restoring Life in the City: Regenerating the Valletta Grand Harbour Area Nadia Theuma(1), Anthony Theuma (2) (1)Institute of Tourism, Travel and Culture, University of Malta (2)Paragon Europe, Malta [email protected] Abstract Harbour Cities are formed by the economic, political, social and cultural activity that surrounds them. In recent years a number harbour cities worldwide have been at the forefront of regeneration – and re-building their reality based on revived cultural centres, new commercial activity and international links rather than basing their success on the industrial activity synonymous with their past lives. Valletta, Malta’s harbour – city region is one such city. This paper traces the fate of the Grand Harbour and its neighbouring cities in the island of Malta through the events of past centuries and the most recent regeneration projects. This paper will highlight the importance that harbours have for the prosperity of the urban areas. By analysing the rise and fall of the city regions, this paper will also demonstrate that regeneration of harbour areas has to be in line with the regeneration of the surrounding cities – one does not occur without another. The findings of this paper are based on research conducted in the area during the past eight years through three EU funded projects.1 Key Words: grand harbour, cities, socio-economic development, DevelopMed, DELTA, Malta 1 The Projects are: (1) DevelopMed – Interreg Project (a project commenced in 2009 run by the Marche Region, Italy with Paragon Europe, representing

Kottonera Strategy Document
3 Strategy for Cottonera Foreword The unprecedented results achieved in last years have placed Malta in a position to focus on what is best for the future of our country. The sustained and strong economic performance enables the Maltese Islands to now address the challenges not only of present, but also upcoming, generations. Upgrading infrastructure, in its very wide sense, is a main pillar of Government’s vision to improve the quality of life of our people today, and in the many years to come. Creating modern facilities, improving the natural environment and investing in communities is paramount for a nation which is advancing with a faster pace than any other European member state. Following the conclusion of the Strategy for Valletta, Government is prioritizing Cottonera. While the urban environment in this region has improved significantly over the past years through a number of key projects, I believe it is time to take the next Dr Joseph Muscat leap forward. Prime Minister Meaningful regeneration is what we are after. The Three Cities and Kalkara are blessed with a rich, diverse cultural patrimony which provides a context for positive change. The first and foremost priority of the Cottonera Strategy is to strenghten the socio-economic development of its people. It provides a supportive, flexible and proactive framework, based on measures which seek to notch up standards. Better surroundings will make Cottonera more attractive for business, hence creating more career opportunities. Improved social infrastructure, such as upgraded health, education and recreation facilities, will encourage inclusion, support diversity and create sustainable communities. Refined heritage assets will result in more open spaces and attractions which do justice to the historical uniqueness of Cottonera.
