Some four years down the line from the launch of the Sustainable Islands initiative, what conclusions can be drawn? Mainly that the association seems rapidly to be gaining both recognition and ground: there are now over thirty islands in the network, of which about twenty are engaged in the certification process. Last year, the Sustainable Island and the Label in Progress labels were awarded for the first time. Five islands met the mark: Gorée, Emerald Sea, Santa Luzia, Principe and Pangatalan. The first four went on to request access to the Islands Fund that SMILO has set up with the French Facility for Global Environment (FFEM), demonstrating that the label opens doors to investment and co-funding opportunities. The first projects were launched in Gorée and Principe at the end of last year and the mechanism is now fully functional with its attendant rules and procedures. This year, six islands earned the Label in Progress or Sectorial Awards: Bolama, Zlarin, Tavolara, Saint-Honorat, Sainte-Marguerite and Porquerolles. In 2019, working hand in hand with the Conservatoire du littoral and with the support of all our partners, SMILO initiated concrete actions on islands in the network. And thanks to the efforts of our Secretariat and volunteer experts, we were also able to offer island communities themed workshops, training courses and constant technical support. In June 2020, the IUCN World Conservation Congress will be held in 2019 ANNUAL REPORT REPORT ANNUAL 2019 Marseille, addressing major issues related to the environment and biodiversity around the planet. We pledge to ensure that the voice of the islands is heard among the concert of thousands of delegates from SMILO every nation. 2020 will be a key year during which we aim to welcome 5 new islands and new partners to our network and our label. Maxime PRODROMIDÈS President of the NGO SMILO GORÉE SENEGAL LECOCK ©ANTON SMALL ISLANDS ORGANISATION MISSION SMALL ISLANDS ORGANISATION ISLANDS SMALL SMILO (SMALL ISLANDS ORGANISATION) IS AN NGO GOVERNED BY FRENCH LAW. ITS MISSION IS TO SUPPORT SMALL ISLANDS MEASURING LESS THAN 150 KM² THAT WISH TO ADOPT A MORE SUSTAINABLE WAY OF MANAGING THEIR TERRITORY. SMILO’S ACTIONS COVER VARIOUS TRANSVERSAL THEMES SUCH AS WATER, SANITATION, WASTE, ENERGY, BIODIVERSITY, LANDSCAPES AND ISLAND HERITAGE. SMILO’S APPROACH IS ANCHORED IN SHARED GOVERNANCE AND FOSTERS THE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF EACH TERRITORY TO THE BENEFIT OF ITS POPULATION AND THEIR ENVIRONMENT. The islands’ dedication is recognised in a label developed by SMILO. The Sustainable Island label constitutes international recognition for small is- lands that are striving to improve the management and conservation of natural resources. The label aims to highlight conservation challenges on small islands and to promote territories that are veritable "laboratories" with a role to play in ecological transitioning. To support islands as they work towards the label, SMILO grants access to an Islands Fund, which finances concrete, innovative ope- rations on islands. During the development phase (2017-2021), 18 small islands located in Europe, the Mediterranean, Africa, the Indian Ocean and South-East Asia joined the NGO SMILO with a view to obtaining the Sustainable Island label. All in all, over thirty island territories are members of the SMILO network, embracing a spirit of cooperation and solidarity between islands. The network regularly brings islands and partners together at international events, where REPORT ANNUAL 2019 they can pool their best practices as well as their knowledge on specific subjects. Training courses and workshops are also organised, run by experts - usually SMILO volunteers - who the islanders can also call upon for advice and technical support directly in the field. 7 Advocacy initiatives by the NGO SMILO aim to put the question of small islands on the international agenda. Small islands are standing on the front lines of climate change and can thus be pioneers in achieving more sustainable development. In terms of governance, SMILO holds a General Assembly and has a Board of Directors composed of 5 colleges. The NGO is aided and accommodated by the European & International Division of the Conservatoire du littoral, and supported by the FFEM (the French Facility for Global Environment), the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation, Europe’s Interreg France-Italy (Maritime) programme 2014-2020, France’s Ministry of the Environment, and the French Embassy in Croatia.

For a long time, it has been the residence of medieval Croatian dynasties, whose splendor is still visible in the old town. During the day, life mainly takes place on the beaches and the harbor prome- nade, in the evening the bustle shifts to the promenade of the old town. Numerous shops, restaurants, cafes, bars and ice cream parlors await the tourists. Biograd is a popular port of departure in the heart of Dalmatia. The Pasman Canal and the islands of Pasman and Uglijan, as well as the beautiful world of the Kornati Islands are right on the doorstep.

  • Exploring Underwater Heritage in Croatia a Handbook Exploring Underwater Heritage in Croatia a Handbook
    exploring underwater heritage in croatia a handbook exploring underwater heritage in croatia a handbook Zadar, 2009. AN ROMAN PERIOD SHIPWRECK WITH A CARGO OF AMPHORAE ROMaN PeRIOD ShIPWRecK IN The ČaVLIN ShaLLOWS There are several hundred Roman pe- riod shipwrecks in the Croatian part of the Adriatic Sea, the majority of which are devastated, but about a dozen of which have survived the ravages of time and unethical looters. They have been preserved intact, or with only minor damage, which offers underwater archaeologists an oppor- tunity for complete research. The very large number of Roman ship- wrecks is not unexpected, but speaks rather of the intensity of trade and importance of navigation on the eastern side of the Adriatic Sea, and of the dangers our sea hides. Roman period shipwrecks can be dated either by the type of cargo they carried or by some further analysis (the age of the wood, for example), and the datings range from the 4th century BC to the 6th century. The cargos of these ships were varied: from fine pot- tery, vessels and plates, stone construction elements and brick to the most frequent cargo – amphorae. The amphora was used as packag- ing from the period of the Greece colonisation to the late Roman and the Byzantine supremacy. There are remains of shipwrecks with cargos of amphorae that can be researched on the seabed, covered by Archaeological underwater excavation with the aid of a water dredge protective iron cages, and there are those that, as per documentation, need to be raised to the surface and presented on land.

  • (Re)Construção De Uma Nação: O Caso Da Guiné-Bissau1
    A integridade feminina e a (re)construção de uma nação: O caso da Guiné-Bissau1 Brandon D. Lundy2, Raul Mendes Fernandes3 & Kezia Darkwah4 Resumo Este artigo reconhece e celebra o papel das mulheres na (re)construção da nação na Guiné-Bissau. A perspetiva de género e o enquadramento histórico e multiescalar demons- tram que as mulheres desempenharam um papel constituinte na edificação da nação ao longo do tempo e do espaço. Como é que as mulheres guineenses têm operacionalizado a sua agência na Guiné-Bissau? Quais são as suas novas formas de agência? A análise da construção da nação revela os papéis fundacionais das mulheres, os seus aspetos únicos de investi- mento económico inovador que tiveram lugar antes, durante e após o período colonial, e os esforços políticos contem- porâneos das mulheres para a construção de um país bem-su- cedido e inclusivo. Se o género possibilitou oportunidades únicas para a promoção da nacionalidade, as restrições socio- políticas impostas às mulheres atualmente devem ser avalia- das. Teorias dos feminismos africanos e a interseccionalidade ajudam a explicar este fenómeno. Qualquer análise acerca da (re)construção e manutenção de uma comunidade que não inclua a integralidade das mulheres não será suficiente.

  • Hrvatski Jadranski Otoci, Otočići I Hridi
    Hrvatski jadranski otoci, otočići i hridi Sika od Mondefusta, Palagruţa Mjerenja obale istoĉnog Jadrana imaju povijest; svi autori navode prvi cjelovitiji popis otoka kontraadmirala austougarske mornarice Sobieczkog (Pula, 1911.). Glavni suvremeni izvor dugo je bio odliĉni i dosad još uvijek najsustavniji pregled za cijelu jugoslavensku obalu iz godine 1955. [1955].1 Na osnovi istraţivanja skupine autora, koji su ponovo izmjerili opsege i površine hrvatskih otoka i otoĉića većih od 0,01 km2 [2004],2 u Ministarstvu mora, prometa i infrastrukture je zatim 2007. godine objavljena opseţna nova graĊa, koju sad moramo smatrati referentnom [2007].3 No, i taj pregled je manjkav, ponajprije stoga jer je namijenjen specifiĉnom administrativnom korištenju, a ne »statistici«. Drugi problem svih novijih popisa, barem onih objavljenih, jest taj da ne navode sve najmanje otoĉiće i hridi, iako ulaze u konaĉne brojke.4 Brojka 1244, koja je sada najĉešće u optjecaju, uopće nije dokumentirana.5 Osnovni izvor za naš popis je, dakle, [2007], i u graniĉnim primjerima [2004]. U napomenama ispod tablica navedena su odstupanja od tog izvora. U sljedećem koraku pregled je dopunjen podacima iz [1955], opet s obrazloţenjima ispod crte. U trećem koraku ukljuĉeno je još nekoliko dodatnih podataka s obrazloţenjem.6 1 Ante Irić, Razvedenost obale i otoka Jugoslavije. Hidrografski institut JRM, Split, 1955. 2 T. Duplanĉić Leder, T.

COASTLINE LENGTHS AND AREAS OF ISLANDS IN THE CROATIAN PART OF THE ADRIATIC SEA DETERMINED FROM THE TOPOGRAPHIC MAPS AT THE SCALE OF 1 : 25 000 TEA DUPLANČIĆ LEDER1 UDC: 911.3:32](497.5)(210.7) TIN UJEVIĆ2 Original scientific paper MENDI ČALA1 Izvorni znanstveni članak 1Hydrographic Institute of the Republic of Croatia Hrvatski hidrografski institut 2InfoKARTA, Mažuranićevo šetalište 14, Split Primljeno: 2004-05-09 Received: In this paper, modern definition of island established by the IHO has been accepted, and classification of islands, islets, rocks and rocks awash has been proposed according to their areas. The coastline of the Croatian part of the Adriatic Sea was digitized from topographic maps produced at the scale of 1 : 25 000 (TM 25). Topographic maps used for digitization are more precise than the maps that were used in earlier works and consequently the data on the number of islands and their coastline lengths and areas are more precise. Polygons of islands were closed in GIS package AutoCAD Map 2000, and each was given its name. From the obtained database and classification of islands, islets and rocks, in the coastal sea area of the Republic of Croatia 79 islands, 525 islets, and 642 rocks and rocks awash, or a total of 1246 have been recorded. Furthermore, it has been established that on TM 25 the island of Cres has the largest area (405.70 km2), although in literature so far (including atlases) the island of Krk was most often cited as the largest island in the Adriatic Sea.

UDK 911.3:728.71](497.57/.58) Original Scientifi c Paper Izvorni znanstveni članak Recent Characteristics of the Second Home Phenomenon in the Croatian Littoral Vuk Tvrtko Opačić The study analyses the characteristics of developmental dynamics and spatial distribution of the second home phenomenon in the Croatian littoral, the leading receiving second home area in the country, after the Second World War, with particular emphasis on the recent period (after the Homeland War and Croatian liberation). The period of the conversion and adaptation of the existing and abandoned housing stock into recreational second homes (mostly in 1960s and 1970s) and the period of the construction of the purpose-built dwellings for vacation and recreation, i.e. family weekend-houses (in 1970s and 1980s), was followed by the period of a more intensive construction of multi-apartment recreational buildings (from mid 1990s until the present time). The second home phenomenon fi rst spread in the area of the Northern Croatian Littoral. Then, between 1980 and 1990, it made signifi cant inroads also into Dalmatia. After the Homeland War and in the last ten years, it again became more prominent in the Kvarner and Istria. The geographical distribution of dwellings for vacation and recreation in 2001, covering the period between the two censuses of 1991 and 2001, reveals the persistence of earlier trends towards greater concentration of second homes in the leading tourist regions along the Croatian littoral, but also the increased dispersion into the regions which do not have as high value for tourism but are suitable for accommodating second home dwellings.
