Picket lines, posters, and collective action – protests and protesting are a necessity for social change. Protests were a frequent activity in the recent past, but nowadays, protesting has taken a different form.

In this workshop collaboration between Magna Żmien and Moviment Graffitti, we are presenting a day-long workshop which explores Malta’s protesting past whilst actively applying the contents of our archives to create material to make your voice heard.

Since 1995, Moviment Graffitti has been one of the leading non-governmental organisations fighting against injustices particularly related to the environment, having organised hundreds of protests and peaceful actions and, since then, they have amassed an archive documenting their activities as an organisation. This workshop will include interventions from activists, archivists and activist-archivists.
