MoI is a network of scholars conducting policy-relevant research to support island economies achieve resource security and self-reliance, and build resilience to the impacts of climate change.

What we do

We aim to create new knowledge by participating and collaborating in research projects and developing new open source tools.

Share knowledge

We aim to gather and curate (all) knowledge around island metabolism in one central platform in order to make it accessible to different target audiences.

Apply knowledge

We help policy makers and practitioners to tackle their challenges with Island Metabolism thinking.

Foster a community

We believe that tackling the island sustainability challenge can not be done alone. We want to foster a community of stakeholders that collaborates on developing solutions.
