Inizjamed hija organizzazzjoni kulturali mediterranja (irreġistrata bħala Għaqda Volontarja f’Malta, VO/0355) li twaqqfet fl-1998 bil-għan li tmexxi proġetti kulturali u artistiċi fuq livell lokali u internazzjonali. Inizjamed tfittex li ġġedded l-espressjoni artistika f’Malta fid-dawl ta’ għarfien aħjar tal-varjetà kulturali li teżisti f’pajjiżna, fir-reġjun tal-Mediterran u lilhinn. F’dan il-kuntest, “il-kultura” tirreferi ghall-iżvilupp artistiku u intellettwali u b’mod partikulari dawk l-affarijiet li jinsġu flimkien l-eżistenza tagħna u jgħinuna biex nagħtuha skop.
Uħud mill-inizjattivi ta’ Inizjamed huma marbutin mal-kitba kreattiva bil-Malti, fosthom l-organizzazzjoni ta’ workshops ma’ awturi magħrufin u festivals tal-letteratura, iżda dejjem ikun hemm interazzjoni ma’ forom oħra ta’ l-arti, bħat-teatru, il-mużika u l-arti viżiva. Isiru wkoll ħafna proġetti f’oqsma artistiċi u kulturali oħrajn.
Inizjamed ilha torganizza l-Festival Mediterranju tal-Letteratura ta’ Malta bi sħab ma’ Literature Across Frontiers sa mill-2006.
