CALL TO ACTION: PRESERVING CYCLADES’ PARADISE
The Greek complex of the Cyclades is a unique archipelago comprising nearly 220 islets and islands, with 24 of them being inhabited and home to around 115,000 residents.
The allure of these islands lies in their world-famous beaches, abundant biodiversity, and vibrant culture. However, the splendour of the Aegean islands, attracting millions of visitors annually, raises vital questions about sustainability and conservation. Concerns span from water and energy consumption to waste management and pollution. Additionally, limited opportunities of environmental education, awareness raising campaigns and long-term planning for sustainable solutions looms large.
Since 2018, the Cyclades Preservation Foundation (CPF), with unwavering confidence and a strong commitment to preserving the Cycladic islands’ unique environmental heritage and culture, acts as a driving force: it supports sound plans and projects empowering local initiatives, it designs and implements flagship initiatives with local and non-local allies, as well as it establishes networks aiming at promoting sustainable development in the region.
The CPF supports projects in the following areas:
