Volunteering and inclusion at the heart of a month-long cultural programme in Rabat
Festival Agape activities highlighting culture, volunteering and community participation in Rabat.
Festival Agape will once again be held this year, continuing its mission to promote the cultural, historical and spiritual heritage of Rabat. Organised by the Paulus Foundation under the patronage of the Ministry for Inclusion and Volunteering, the festival will take place between 23 January and 21 February.
The festival places strong emphasis on volunteering as a means of fostering inclusion and community engagement. Numerous volunteers are actively involved to ensure that Rabat’s cultural and musical heritage is accessible to everyone, including persons with disabilities.
Minister for Inclusion and Volunteering Julia Farrugia highlighted that initiatives such as Festival Agape reflect the Government’s commitment to strengthening inclusion and volunteering through culture. She noted that when cultural activities are accessible to all, they help build stronger, more cohesive communities.
Participants will have the opportunity to take part in talks, artistic activities and guided tours of historic sites in Rabat, all designed to encourage community participation and social interaction.
The festival will culminate in a concert by the Malta National Orchestra, which will be held at St Paul’s Basilica in Rabat on 6 February.Festival Agape, Rabat, Culture, Volunteering, Inclusion, Heritage, Malta
