Air Mauritius Sustainability programme

"Connect and Protect"

Air Mauritius in partnership with the National Parks and Conservation Service, invites you to discover the unique biodiversity of Mauritius. Committed to the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations, Air Mauritius is dedicated to protect and preserve Mauritius natural heritage for generations to come. Join us on a journey of conservation and sustainable development as we celebrate our island’s natural treasures.

“Connect and Protect” focuses on the "Olive White-eye", a critically endangered endemic bird to Mauritius.

The Olive White-eye, Zosterops chloronothos, is a critically endangered endemic bird with fewer than 300 individuals. Known for its olive green plumage and white eye-ring, it inhabits dense forests and feeds on fruits, nectar and insects. Threatened by habitat loss and invasive species, its conservation is vital for preserving Mauritius’ biodiversity.
