Community Building Can Drive Innovation for Islands Across the Globe
Over the past 18 months of the pandemic, more and more people have come to appreciate the power of cooperation and building bridges of shared understanding. Among the challenges that island nations share are sustainable economic development, climate change adaptation/mitigation, protecting biodiversity, and exploring the Blue Economy.
When discussing common problems and opportunities with people from different regions and industries, you can come across new ideas and advice. Sharing your ideas encourages others to do the same, resulting in a more collaborative and happy environment for everybody. Island communities can empower and motivate each other to craft a more resilient and sustainable future.
Building communities can be a solution to make collaboration more accessible and efficient. One of the cornerstones of the Island Innovation vision is to promote collaboration between islands across the globe and facilitate the discovery and implementation of innovative solutions for their shared challenges. Through building and articulating a strong network, we help connect many communities and enhance their strength.
One of the most important aspects of any successful collaboration is to listen, and we strive to listen to your feedback and suggestions. By understanding your experience and expectations as a community member, we can optimize our work and develop new initiatives to better serve as a platform for you to learn, cooperate and impact your community from anywhere in the world.
