SEED Projects’ flagship initiative for community-based rural development. MRN connects a growing network of farmers, artisans, and small-scale producers across Malta and Gozo, empowering them through sustainable tourism, product development, and skills training. By turning rural heritage into livelihood opportunities, Merill helps preserve traditions while creating new income streams for local communities. Through curated experiences, CSR activities, and direct support, MRN strengthens rural resilience and fosters authentic connections between visitors and hosts.
MaYA is an autonomous, mission-driven foundation dedicated to strengthening Malta’s agricultural future through youth empowerment, advocacy, and systemic change. Focused on the needs and aspirations of farmers and food producers, MaYA works to position agriculture as a viable, respected, and forward-looking profession for younger generations. Through policy engagement, education initiatives, public dialogue, and cross-sector collaboration, the Foundation addresses land use, food systems governance, and the social sustainability of farming. While independently governed, MaYA maintains a close strategic relationship with SEED Projects, allowing shared capacities and aligned action in support of resilient, people-centred agri-food systems.
A collaborative venture between SEED Projects and Exclusively Malta Luxury Travel, this initiative merges community-based values with professional tourism logistics. It curates premium rural experiences that celebrate Malta’s agricultural, artisanal, cultural, and gastronomic heritage, placing a strong emphasis on sustainability, authenticity, and high service standards. As the go-to service provider for various Destination Management Companies (DMCs), it plays a vital role in raising the bar for rural tourism in Malta. Through close co-creation with local hosts and industry partners, it supports the professionalisation of experiential tourism while championing Malta’s rich culinary identity and rural landscapes.
Growing Together
SEED Projects collaborates with a carefully chosen network of NGOs, social enterprises, and institutional partners whose values align with our own. We believe that meaningful impact comes from deep alignment - not just in goals, but in principles and purpose. That’s why we selectively onboard partners who share our commitment to community empowerment, sustainability, and ethical project delivery. Whether supporting EU-funded initiatives, strengthening governance structures, or co-developing social impact strategies, our role is not transactional, it’s transformative. Through this values-first approach, we ensure that every collaboration is built on trust, mutual respect, and a shared vision for long-term change. Simply put, we grow together - or not at all.
Social Responsibility
We work closely with communities, youth-led initiatives, and civil society actors to foster the next generation of changemakers. Together, we design and implement CSR projects that connect private-sector engagement with real community needs - from sustainability-focused team-building experiences to regenerative and socially responsible initiatives. By combining grassroots insight with strong coordination and delivery capacity, we translate ideas into structured, fundable actions with tangible impact. This approach goes beyond one-off sponsorships, focusing instead on long-term investment in people, place, and purpose.
Collaboration & Innovation
SEED is an active partner in EU-funded initiatives across multiple streams, including Horizon Europe, Erasmus+, and Interreg. Our strength lies in transforming concepts into viable project applications and delivering real results through strong coordination, research design, and community engagement. From circular economy pilots to education and capacity-building projects, we help partners navigate EU funding complexities while staying grounded in impact, accountability, and local relevance. We are the implementers behind ambitious ideas.
Local Partnerships
Through our experience with Malta’s LEADER programme and national schemes, SEED works with local councils, NGOs, and grassroots groups to co-develop projects that serve community needs. We help translate vision into action - whether it's creating short supply chains for local food, restoring rural spaces, or setting up new cultural initiatives. Our team supports project structuring, partnership building, and funding readiness, ensuring smaller organisations can access public support and deliver measurable, lasting change.
Let’s Collaborate...
We don’t accept every project - and that’s intentional. SEED chooses to work only with organisations whose values align with ours. If you're committed to sustainability, community empowerment, and social equity, we’re interested in growing with you. Whether you’re a research body, NGO, or public entity, we’re open to meaningful collaborations built on trust, professionalism, and purpose. Reach out to explore how we can co-create something that truly makes a difference — together.
