The Foundations's council of administration consists of the founders, namely Daphne's husband and sons Peter, Matthew, Andrew and Paul Caruana Galizia. Peter is the first chairman of the council, which must consist of at least three people, who are unpaid. The chairman may establish a supervisory council of at least two members. The Foundation has a board of advisors who direct its actions and strategy (names are publicly available on its website). The Foundation's deed prevents it from having any beneficiaries. It is open to donations from the public which are used for the purposes stated in its deed of foundation. The Foundation works to combat harassment of journalists and impunity in cases of their murder. Actions include forming more robust investigative models based on the work on Daphne's murder investigation, and organising educational public seminars. Further information on its activities, mission and objectives can be found on its website.
The mission of the Foundation is full justice for Daphne Caruana Galizia's assassination and full justice for her work and her legacy, to ensure that the outcome she fought for - the rule of law, and freedom from corruption, abuse and human rights violations - is achieved. The aims of the Foundation have both a local and international focus. They are as follows: - Ensuring the public interest of full justice for Daphne's assassination - Supporting efforts to protect investigative journalists - Ending impunity for the murder of journalists - Guardianship of Daphne's work - Promoting a culture of public interest litigation - Supporting independent, non-partisan media More information on the Foundation's mission and objectives can be found on its website and Benevity cause profile (found on the 'Contact Us' page of the Foundation's website).
Information of the Foundation's activities is publicly available on its website, particularly in its 'Mission' section.
As the Daphne Caruana Galizia Foundation, we believe that we can contribute a lot to the Network in Malta based on our objectives, namely to promote a culture of openness and understanding of human rights, to encourage dialogue and demcratic thinking, and to support independent, non-partisan media, as well as support efforts to protect investigative journalists and activists, and uphold guardianship of Daphne's work.
The Foundation would like to join this network to be recognised further as an organisation fighting for the rule of law and freedom from corruption, abuse and human rights violations in Malta and abroad. Being part of the ALF Network will strenghten it in achieving its goals.
