La Graciosa

The Island of La Graciosa has, for 50 years and until today, an energy and water supply completely dependent on the island of Lanzarote, located 1.5 km away. All the energy and drinking water supplied to La Graciosa is channelled through underwater cables and pipes and comes from processes that, approximately 90%, are derived from the burning of fossil fuels.

DAFNI - Network of Sustainable Greek Islands

DAFNI - Network of Sustainable Greek Islands is a non-profit organization of local and regional island authorities. Founded in 2006, DAFNI aims to strengthen local island governance and help islands embark on a sustainable development paradigm, through the integrated management of natural resources and infrastructures, the uptake of sustainable tourism and the enhanced interdependence of the primary, secondary and tertiary sectors.

Small Islands Organisation

The NGO Small Islands Organisation (SMILO) supports small islands of less than 150km² towards the sustainable management of their territory and resources. It bolsters integrated operations for the preservation of islands’ natural resources, in relation to water and sanitation, waste, energy, biodiversity, landscapes and heritage issues. The Sustainable Island label rewards the positive local dynamics and sustainable practices. Currently, 18 islands are involved in the labelling process.
