A photographic exhibition dedicated to the Order of Malta was inaugurated in the Hotel Rosaleda in Encamp, in the presence of  the Andorran Minister of Culture, Youth and Sport Mònica Bonell, the Andorran Minister of Foreign Affairs Imma Tor and the Grand Commander of the Order of Malta Fra’ Emmanuel Rousseau.

“900 years in the field, serving the neediest”, with the support of Fundació Sant Romà, is the title of the exhibition, which consists of 15 photographic panels illustrating some of the humanitarian activities and assistance in the 130 countries where the Order of Malta is present. They range from the action taken to support the Spanish population affected by DANA last November to the massive humanitarian operation carried out in Ukraine in recent years to the work of the Holy Family Hospital, run by the Order as a unique model of assistance and social cohesion in Bethlehem, to mention just a few examples.

“As we can see today in this exhibition our Sovereign Order works tirelessly to improve our world. The Order of Malta believes in an international system based on respect for international law and the central role of multilateral cooperation and of the United Nations,” explained the Grand Commander.

In the morning, there was a working meeting between the Minister of Foreign Affairs Imma Tor, the Minister of Culture, Youth and Sport Mònica Bonell and the Grand Commander Fra’ Emmanuel Rousseau, where possibilities of collaboration between the Principality of Andorra and the Sovereign Order of Malta in the context of international cooperation were discussed.
