Judge Maurice Caruana Curran, St. Julians MALTA

He was considered by all on the island of Malta to be the pioneer of the national conservation movement. He promoted the cause of Maltese heritage, despite personal criticism by the government and public inertia, to a position where it is now valued and appreciated. He wrote numerous papers, articles and letters of influence, all of which was done entirely voluntarily in his retirement from the legal profession.

“For his unwavering commitment to the ideals of conservation, for his ability to speak fearlessly for heritage and for his unflinching spirit of volunteership.”
