“BirdLife Malta Opportunities” are professional and volunteering roles offered by BirdLife Malta, a leading environmental organisation in Malta dedicated to the protection of wild birds, their habitats, and biodiversity.
The organisation’s work focuses on safeguarding migratory and resident bird species, managing nature reserves, combating illegal hunting, and promoting sustainable environmental practices through community engagement and policy action.
Depending on the specific role or volunteering opportunity, participants may contribute to a wide range of activities. These can include fieldwork such as monitoring bird populations and seabird colonies, collecting and analysing environmental data, supporting conservation actions in protected areas, and assisting with research projects. Volunteers and staff may also take part in public awareness campaigns, educational programmes for schools and communities, communication and media tasks, and the organisation of events and workshops related to nature conservation.
The experience offers a hands-on opportunity to develop skills in environmental protection, teamwork, scientific research, and community outreach, while contributing to meaningful conservation efforts in a Mediterranean island context. Participants work closely with experts and like-minded individuals, gaining insight into real-world environmental challenges and solutions.
Reminder: Specific conditions such as accommodation, allowances, or contract details depend on each vacancy or volunteering position. Opportunities may include both paid roles and European Solidarity Corps placements, typically within an international team environment.
To apply, follow the instructions provided in each opportunity listing and submit the required documents (such as CV and application form) to the indicated contact.
