MGRM: The Malta LGBTIQ Rights Movement, previously known as the Malta Gay Rights Movement, is an LGBTQ rights organisation in Malta. It advocates for equality of all people regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, sex characteristics and expression.

MGRM was set up in 2001, making it the first and most influential LGBTIQ+ lobbying group in Malta. MGRM organised the first Pride March in Malta and launched the first national gay helpline in 2004.[1][2] Since then, MGRM has had a key role in lobbying for legislation, carrying out research and providing support to Malta's LGBTIQ community.
