Guardians of the Deep: An Awareness Campaign on Marine Environment in Malta
A digital campaign on octopus and marine conservation across Malta, culminating in a public stand on World Octopus Day with a symbolic Octopus Therapy gesture for premature babies.
Guardian of the Sea combines a digital awareness campaign with an in-person culmination. From 18 September to 8 October, Octopolis Foundation shares video content and stories on octopus biology and Mediterranean marine ecosystem health across social media.
The campaign culminates on 8 October, World Octopus Day, with a public engagement stand offering interactive displays and direct conversation with the team on local conservation challenges.
The day closes with a symbolic gesture tied to our Octopus Therapy initiative: hand-crocheted cotton octopuses, made as a comfort item for premature babies, are intended to be delivered to a neonatal ward at Mater Dei Hospital.
