Islands for Sustainability: Biocultural Heritage, Ecosystem Services, and Climate Resilience

Islands and coastal habitats, while diverse in context, share common challenges and opportunities in the pursuit of sustainability, particularly concerning climate change, biodiversity conservation, and renewable energy. These regions are especially vulnerable to global environmental changes, yet they also offer unique potential for studying these transformations and implementing innovative sustainability strategies, providing local solutions to global challenges.

This initiative seeks to build networks that transcend disciplinary silos, ensuring that marginalized voices, local knowledge, and participatory methods are integrated into broader sustainability frameworks. By participating, you contribute to shaping new pathways for resilience, social innovation, and sustainable island futures.

Join us in co-creating knowledge, amplifying underrepresented perspectives, and forging new collaborations that will strengthen climate resilience and sustainability on islands and coastal regions.
