BirdLife Malta – Is-Simar Nature Reserve

The Melita Foundation supported BirdLife Malta’s project to attract Scopoli’s Shearwater Birds, promoting wildlife protection and sustainability.

Birdlife Malta’s Scopoli’s Shearwater Birds Project, aims to help these birds return to their cliffside homes for breeding. The project consisted of setting up artificial nests and monitoring of the birds with trail cameras at Wied Fulija. BirdLife also plans to livestream the nests to raise awareness. The Melita Foundation backs this project to protect wildlife and promote sustainability. By creating safe nesting sites and educating the public, the project contributes to the conservation of these important bird species. 

Making a difference together

Since starting in 2020, The Melita Foundation has backed many projects run by different groups and backgrounds. From local STEM skills for school kids in the Three Cities to global stuff like planting trees, ESG awareness, teaching maritime law and conservation and ensuring our heritage is well taken care of.
