Africa Travel WeekDirector of Shark Warrior Adventures, a sustainable tourism operation run as a project of the long-standing marine conservation NGO Afrioceans, Jon Monsoon, took the opportunity to create a unique survival plan. He designed a campaign in collaboration with Airbnb virtual experiences called ‘The Art of Penguin Conservation’. Dressed as a penguin with a side-kick puppet named Sushi, Jon provided insight and information about Cape Town and its endangered African penguins through hosting live, interactive webinars. The campaign offered an engaging online activity, environmental education and an art class suitable for all ages at home during the lockdown.
