Conclave of the Knights of Malta

The Conclave of the Knights of Malta is a formal gathering of elected leaders within the Sovereign Military Order of Malta, a historic Catholic organization dedicated to humanitarian work. During the conclave, these leaders, known as the Sovereign Council, meet to discuss policies, make strategic decisions, and oversee the organization's mission. It is a confidential and structured assembly that ensures governance aligns with the Order's spiritual and charitable objectives. The conclave maintains the organization's sovereignty and independence, functioning much like a government body within this unique religious and humanitarian institution.
