Milestones of Nationhood
November 9 @ 11:00 - 13:00
FreeOne of the special events in Il-Ħaġar Museum’s cultural programme for the first quarter of its events season takes place on Saturday, 9 November, when the museum will mark three important anniversaries in the history of our country: the 60th anniversary of Independence (1964), the 50th of the Republic (1974), and the 20th of European Union Accession (2004), with a panel discussion titled Milestones of Nationhood.
The discussion will be introduced by Roberta Metsola, President of the European Parliament, and moderated by former Sunday Times of Malta editor Steve Mallia. The panel will feature Her Excellency Marie Louise Coleiro Preca, President Emeritus of Malta, and University of Malta academics Lino Briguglio, Joseph Pirotta, and Simone Azzopardi. Together, they will reflect on these three milestones in the recent history of Malta and Gozo, examine how they have unfolded, consider where our nation stands today, and discuss the way forward.
