Kopin (Koperazzjoni Internazzjonali) is a voluntary organization based in Malta which works in the field of North-South cooperation. Kopin was launched in public during a seminar on "The Policies of the European Union with regards to North South Cooperation" held on 24 June, 2000. Although Kopin is not bound to any other organization it has good relations with a number of Maltese and foreign organizations. Kopin is a member of the Forum for Justice and Cooperation together with the Third World Group, Koperattiva Kummerc Gust (Fair Trade Cooperative) and Inizjamed.

For over 30 years, INKOTA has been an ecumenical network of development-oriented grassroots organizations, parishes, fair-trade stores, and individuals.
We align ourselves with the worldwide movement of the critics of globalization and therefore, work for a world in which the human needs and interests of all people count more than the economic interests of a privileged group. Hereby we link our support for our partner groups in the South with public awareness building vis-a-vis development issues in Germany.
