The core element of bilateral relations with Malta is the Mediterranean Academy for Diplomatic Studies (MEDAC) jointly established by Switzerland and Malta in 1990. The Academy, which is integrated in the University of Malta campus, offers training programmes in diplomacy and international relations, focusing principally on the Mediterranean region. Switzerland supports MEDAC financially and also contributes to the financing of scholarships for young diplomats from the Mashreq and the Maghreb as well as to the costs and salaries for the Swiss chair.
