Congratulations to Professor Leonie Baldacchino on her appointment as Pro-Rector for Internationalisation, Enterprise and Outreach, and to Professor Noellie Brockdorff, Chairperson of the Institute's Board, on her appointment as Pro-Rector for People, Quality and Communications.
These appointments are a testament to their outstanding leadership, dedication, and commitment to advancing excellence in higher education.

We are delighted to see their expertise and experience recognised through these important roles.

We also extend our congratulations to Rector-Elect Professor Frank Bezzina and wish the new leadership team every success as they guide the University of Malta into an exciting new chapter.
On behalf of everyone at the Edward de Bono Institute, we wish Professors Baldacchino and Brockdorff every success in their new roles and look forward to working together in support of the University's future development and impact.
