DAFNI

Network of Sustainable Greek Islands

DAFNI Network of Sustainable Greek Islands is a Development Organization of Local Government (DOLG), representing island municipalities. It was established in 2006 with the aim of strengthening local governance in the islands and promoting a sustainable development model for island regions. This model is based on the sustainable and smart management of natural resources and infrastructure, the development of sustainable tourism that leverages the islands’ natural and cultural assets, and the effective integration of the primary, secondary, and tertiary economic sectors. In 2024, DAFNI was transformed into a DOLG, enabling it to strategically support local authorities in the planning and implementation of development projects by capitalizing on its technical expertise and management capabilities.
