The European Commission has adopted two new strategies dedicated to supporting EU islands and coastal communities.
The strategy for islands focuses on improving connectivity, expanding the "Clean Energy for EU Islands" initiative through 2030, enhancing housing affordability, and strengthening crisis preparedness. Simultaneously, the strategy for coastal communities prioritizes a competitive "blue economy," fostering innovations such as algae-based fertilizers and blue carbon certification, while ensuring resilience and livability. Together, these measures empower locally led solutions to help these regions thrive as sustainable, competitive, and vibrant parts of the European Union.
