The Malé Declaration communication activities have targeted a broad audience in South Asia. This has been accomplished through the development of newsletters and through stakeholder involvement in workshops and national initiatives. In addition, the progress in the Malé Declaration has frequently been presented to international meetings.

The Malé Declaration has an annual regional stakeholder meeting and a number of national stakeholder meetings. Dissemination is also conducted through youth groups such as South Asia Youth Environment network (SAYEN). Awareness activities have included dissemination of brochures, posters, and stickers on air pollution by the NIA as well as filmed songs on air pollution by popular singers and short plays using well-known actors. Awareness activities have also included activities under the Malé Declaration targeted on three levels of education and understanding for the general public, schools and university students and technical/science professionals.
