The mission consisted in conducing the feasibility study of the project « Initiative Sustainable Islands », led by the French Conservatoire du Littoral. This project aims to support managers of small island territories, who wish to foster sustainable development on their territories and pool their efforts together. The project relied on four types of actions: sharing of knowledge and pratices ; recognition and valorization of best practices (tanks to a label) ; capitalization and spreading of the experiences and best practices and capacity building.

The mission included the following tasks :
- Definition of the legal statutes and the governance of the “Initiative” Sustainable Islands ;
- Proposal of the operational approach of the Label (method of the territorial diagnosis, criteria for delivering the label, institutional organization etc.) ;
- Revision of the list of pilot islands (test of the approach) ;
- Finalization of the budget ;
- Finalization of the institutional and financial partnerships ;
- Drafting the project Commitment Note.
