MALTE (Music, Art, Literature, Theatre, Etc.) is an Italian Cultural Association founded in 2006 by a group of operators from a variety of disciplines (musicians, writers, directors), with the aim of realising projects connotated by multiple expressive languages. Since then, MALTE has worked on initiatives with a deep social commitment actively involving a wide audience, thanks to collaborations with both public and private organisations and civil society subjects (human rights, justice and legality bodies, immigrants’ and elderlies’ associations, immigration help centres) on a local, national and international level. The Association has also developed different educational activities, from the laboratories of acting and dramaturgy in Italy (with professional and non- professional actors of different ages), to different artistic projects in different contexts: disadvantaged children (Chile and Burkina Faso), single mothers (Senegal and Kenya); immigrants coming from different African areas (Italy). The Association’s projects have often focused on the enhancement of the local heritage with site-specific activities, using artistic techniques and tools of social communication.
