Call for research participation

What does poverty mean to you?

The Keep It Reel Research Project is inviting young people in Malta (aged 18–30) to explore and express their perspectives on poverty through short creative reels.

Participants are kindly asked to:
📍 Attend a short online briefing
🎬 Create 1–2 short reels (30–90 seconds) expressing their views on poverty
💬 Join a small group discussion to reflect on the reels together

This participatory research project, part of the PROMISE Poverty Research Cluster at the University of Malta, is creating space for young people to share their perspectives on poverty in creative, reflective, and collaborative ways.

No technical skills needed! This project is about perspectives and self-expression, not production quality.
If you're aged 18–30 and interested in taking part, we’d love to hear from you.

Send us a message at [email protected] to take part.
