Geographical Position - Environment Of all the islands of the Small Eastern Cyclades group, Donousa is the one situated farthest to the northeast. The group is located between Naxos and Amorgos, also including Koufonisia, Schoinousa, Irakleia and Keros. Donousa is located 9 miles to the east of Naxos and 14 miles to the north of Amorgos, with an area of 13 km2, and holds a resident population of 160 (2001). Its ground is semi-mountainous and mount Papos (383 m), located approximately in the center of Donousa, is its highest peak. Plains on Donousa are few. Vegetation is bushy though, favoring stock farming. Its subsoil is also rich in zinc. It has many short shores that form steep oblong capes and successive coves, many of which harbor beautiful quite beaches with thin sand. 2. History First traces of habitation on Donousa date from the Protocycladic Period (3rd millennium BC), as shown by the two settlements at the sites Achtia ton Agrilion and Myti tou Trachyla. Residents had obviously formed two small communities based on stock farming and fishing, integrated into the broad cultural network of the Protocycladic civilization. The island prospered during Geometric Times (10th-7th century BC), as illustrated by the fortified settlement of Vathy Limenari (at the southeastern part of the island), near Myti tou Trachyla. Significant findings uncovered there demonstrate a greater influence from the Dodecanese rather than the Cyclades. Numerous funeral pyres –a very common burial rite at that time– have also been uncovered around the settlement. Little is known about the following periods, although we do know Donousa was used as an exile destination during Roman Times. During Middle Ages and Ottoman rule, it was a pirate lair and an ideal place for herding and fishing. In 1941, Donousa initially came under Italian rule, since the Axis Powers had taken over Greece. After Italy capitulated in 1943, the island came under German rule until it was finally liberated in 1944. 3. Archaeological sites – Monuments Δημιουργήθηκε στις 30/9/2021 Σελίδα 1/3 IΔΡΥΜA ΜΕΙΖΟΝΟΣ ΕΛΛΗΝΙΣΜΟΥ Συγγραφή : Τσώνος Κωνσταντίνος Μετάφραση : Ντοβλέτης Ονούφριος (4/8/2006) Για παραπομπή : Τσώνος Κωνσταντίνος , "Donousa", 2006, Εγκυκλοπαίδεια Μείζονος Ελληνισμού, Κωνσταντινούπολη URL: <http://www.ehw.gr/l.aspx?id=10467> Donousa (aka Stavros), located on the eastern coast, is both the capital and the port. There are four more settlements (Kalotaritissa, Mersini, Mesaria and Charavgi) along the southeastern side of Donousa, connected with each other with the main road network. An asphalted secondary road network leads to the rest of the island, as to the beaches of Kedros and Livadi or Vathy Limenari, which is the island’s most important archaeological site. There are many paths too, running through massifs and inaccessible areas. Only through such paths can someone visit the Toichos cave, on Aspros Kavos cape to the northwest, and Fokospilia (“Seal cave”) to the southeast, which used to be a refuge for the Mediterranean seal. 4. Traditional architecture The island’s five settlements have a remarkable architecture, a lot different than the modern image of larger Cycladic islands with many tourists. The Aegean tradition is expressed through the stone lime-rendered houses, the spacious cool interiors, the large yards and the impressive balconies, and the narrow slab-paved streets, points of social interaction. 5. Donousa today The residents occupy themselves basically with stock farming and fishing. Bushy vegetation, which covers much of the island’s area, favors apiculture, an occupation also found on other small or large mountainous Cycladic islands. More and more travellers choose Donousa for their vacation over the past years, since there are more itineraries connecting the Small Eastern Cyclades with one another, with Piraeus (all year long), and with the large nearby islands and the Dodecanese. This has affected the locals, who try to create the appropriate infrastructure without spoiling the traditional character of the island. Stavros, apart from being the port (it recently developed its docking infrastructure) and the capital, it is also the administration center. It therefore tries to fulfill yearlong, in the best way possible, the needs of locals and tourists that choose Donousa for their vacation. 6. Churches Beautiful churches complement the landscape. They are strongly connected with the social milieu, and their large yards are a place of social interaction. Some of the most beautiful churches are at Stavros (e.g. Timios Stavros/Holy Cross, Panagia/Virgin Mary, Agios Ioannis/St John). The churches are the centers of settlements or neighborhoods, as demonstrated by their being larger than all other buildings. Very often, they have blue cupolas, higher than all buildings, so that it they are visible from a distance. That also underlines the church’s prominent place amongst all other buildings. Many small Aegean settlements have been declared listed, a fact that helps preserve this image, and promotes development in a human scale. 7. Alternative energy sources – Technological parks We must also mention a mixed system used for producing electricity, which combines the traditional hydraulic production system with modern accumulators for storing the energy produced. This proves how useful such "untouched" places can be for experimenting on technologies that respect renewable sources of energy, so that alternative solutions to daily problems of modern life can be provided.

    THE DONOUSA MIRACLE A Scientist Bio-Interview with Prof. Leonidas A. Papakonstantinidis. https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Leonidas_Papakonstantinidis https://researchleap.com/wp- content/uploads/2018/02/04_A_Social_Welfare_Economics_Proposal.edited.pdf Interviewer: Stephen I. Ternyik, Techno-Logos, Inc. (-1985) https://www.sociostudies.org/authors/ternyik_stephen_i/ Sudden mind changes seem to happen by a rapid transformation of the heart beat frequency. Such a deep psychological moment happened to you, when you visited Donousa island in 1979. You came as developmental and academic bureaucrat from the capital (Athens) and you were a bit over 30 years. What did strike you, the young careerist, so much, in that geo-meta-physical location? Yes, I came as a developmental and academic bureaucrat (Agricultural Bank of Greece, Direction of Studies and Planning) from the capital Athens to report on the small Cyclades-Aegean islands, and I started from Donousa. My turning point in the mind was a scene with the mute coachman driving the mule, as opposed to the limousine, which took us from Brussels airport to the building of the European Commission, called the Berlaymont. This was the period (1976-1979) of Greece’s accession to the EEC (now EU). The population of Donousa was fully isolated from what is called ‘quality of life’ or standard of living. I had no idea on how these people faced their day-to- day problems, especially those related to health. No electricity, no water, no infrastructure, no roads, no official port; it was a boat that brought guests to the island. It then literally clicked in me, and I refused my predetermined career, while all other bank direction members (27) became high profile academics or politicians.

  • Island Sustainable Energy Action Plan
    ISLAND SUSTAINABLE ENERGY ACTION PLAN ISLAND OF SCHOINOUSSA Date 30/4/2012 ISLAND SUSTAINABLE ENERGY ACTION PLAN ISLAND OF SCHOINOUSA Executive summary The Municipality of Naxos and Small Cyclades by signing the Pact of Islands takes action towards sustainable development and the fight against climate change at local level. Together with other Greek and European islands commits to meet the targets set by the European Union for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. The long-term vision of the local authorities is to succeed into restricting the rapidly increasing CO2 emissions of the island by introducing the maximum amount of renewable energy sources in the energy production and demand side and by promoting the adoption of energy saving and efficiency in all activity sectors. Objectives and Targets The Municipality of Naxos and Small Cyclades has developed different sustainable energy action plans, for each one of the islands under its administration, highlighting the special needs and potentials of each island. Individual priorities and targets are set for each island. The present action plan concerns the island of Schoinoussa and sets clear and ambitious objectives and targets concerning the island’s local energy policy. The objectives set for the target year 2020 focus on increasing the island’s energy supply security, reducing its dependence on fuel imports and finally reducing the island’s energy and CO2 emissions footprint. Specifically, the targets set for 2020 focus on reducing by 50% the primary energy demand and by 39% the CO2 emissions in comparison to the projections of the business as usual scenario, meeting the 12% of the primary energy demand and the 17% of the electricity demand by the use of local renewable energy sources.

  • Re-Thinking Mobility Poverty
    15 Isolation, individualism and sharing Mobility poverty in Naxos and Small Cyclades, Greece Akrivi Vivian Kiousi, Mariza Konidi and Dariya Rublova Abstract This chapter presents the results of the fieldwork carried out in remote and secluded areas on Greek islands through stakeholders’ interviews and focus groups with citizens. The main objective was to assess groups vulnerable to mobility poverty, in particular children and populations living in remote rural areas. This was implemented on the island of Naxos and on the much smaller one of Iraklia. Interviews and focus groups show profound isolation, but also ro- bust commitment to seeking collective solutions to mobility poverty, at least on Iraklia. While privately owned cars are the dominant means of transport, informal peer-to-peer car-pooling is very common in remote areas. However, there are weaker social strata, as children, the elderly and unemployed are more prone to suffer social exclusion. Introduction Big Sweet has this island, virtuous are the faces of people, piles are shaped by melons, peaches, figs and the sea is calm. I looked at the people – never this people have been frightened by earthquakes or by Turks, and their eyes did not burn out. Here freedom had extinguished the need for freedom, and life spread out as happy sleeping water. And if sometimes was discomposed, never rose tempest. Safety was the first gift of island that I felt as walking around Nàxos. (Kazantzakis 1965) The location: Naxos and small Cyclades This chapter presents the results of fieldwork, as conducted in 2018 and 2019, in remote and secluded areas on Greek islands through stakeholders’ interviews and focus groups with members of socially vulnerable groups.1 Our main target groups were (i) people living in remote rural areas and (ii) children.
