| Abstract: | Worker Education was pioneered in Malta at the University of Malta by the Workers’ Participation Development Centre – the precursor of the Centre for Labour Studies – with the first programmes launched in 1982, just over 40 years ago. Lewin (1947) proposed a three-step model for social change: one that requires “mental unfreezing, group value changing and new level refreezing”. In this short essay, and using a broad brush, I review the changes that have taken place in worker education in the last 40 years in Malta, using the Lewin model. |
