SOS Malta has two main departments through which it seeks to reach the abovementioned aims and objectives. These are the Development department and Malta Resource Centre for Civil Society NGOs
Through its development department, SOS Malta carries out emergency aid, promotion of the Millennium Development Goals and development work overseas. It has operated various relief missions and development projects in overseas countries. They are present in Albania, Kosovo and Sri Lanka.
Through Malta Resource Centre www.mrc.org.mt , it provides capacity building, training, and consultancy to NGOs and groups working for social change, development, and the fight against poverty and social exclusion in view of becoming more effective, efficient and better equipped to operate and participate at national and EU levels.
