The Gozo University Group started off ‘Gozo Week’ on Monday with yet another success on campus at the University of Malta. The popular Gozitan band Divine Sinners gave their unique twist to the launching of this year’s programme of events and played on through the whole of Monday morning.The Minister for Gozo Giovanna Debono, was present during the opening as the stands and exhibitions were viewed by students for the first time. Midday also brought Pro-rector Profs. Joe Friggieri to the campus where GUG’s extensive display of Gozitan culture, initiatives and projects is being held.

The Minister for Gozo stated that Gozitan students received more than €1,200 every year, which amounted to over €7 million in the last year. She also said that 71 exam sessions were held at the Gozo Campus in the last academic year.

The positive feel of the first day bodes well for the upcoming events and GUG said that it looks forward to welcoming students and visitors to the activities through the rest of the week.

The Gozo Universtiy Group would like to thank the Ministry for Gozo for supporting this initiative, as well as Gozo Creations, Gozo Tourism Association, Gozo Channel, Cafe Jubilee, Gozo Business Chamber, Bullara Gozo Homes, Ta’ Rummina Farmhouses and Hushabye Lifestyles for their continuous support to make the Gozo week a success.
