The Labour Migration Policy will incorporate recommendations from youth consultation, with a final document expected to be released for public feedback. This was announced during a meeting between the University Students’ Council (KSU) and Prime Minister Robert Abela, who highlighted the significance of involving young people in national decision-making processes.
These recommendations stemmed from the Youth Advisory Forum, a platform that convenes monthly to discuss key topics. During the meeting, the Prime Minister underscored the importance of maintaining regular dialogue with KSU and other youth organizations. He noted that the Labour Migration Policy aims to address workforce demands while prioritizing workers’ rights and limiting foreign employment to sectors with specific needs.
The Prime Minister also referenced Malta Vision 2050, explaining that it reflects youth aspirations in areas such as education and environmental sustainability. He emphasized the need for collaboration to achieve strategic goals by 2035.
Mental health was another topic discussed, with a focus on enhancing community-based services, as outlined in the recent national budget. The Prime Minister concluded by encouraging further youth participation in shaping the country’s future, expressing confidence in their role as catalysts for progress and innovation.
