Our Social Cooperative Enterprise focuses on creating tangible examples of sustainable practices in the protected area of Syros. Our policy and law team will do comparative research of legal and policy provisions and practices in countries around the world regarding environmental issues (protected areas, renewable energy, endangered species etc). Your research outcomes will contribute to the creation of an open-access scientific database regarding issues of the Cycladic ecosystem, as well as publications of informational materials and policy proposals. You will also have the freedom to propose new research topics and thus support your own research projects.

Description
The Social Cooperative Enterprise Apano Meria was created in 2015 through an open assembly of Syros citizens, which recognized the need to prevent excessive touristic development through the encouragement of mild activities, especially in the protected areas of the island (Natura 2000).It was officially founded in 2017, in order to promote, protect and preserve the northern part of the island (Apano Meria) and until today it supports the actions of the Municipality for the promotion of geotourism. From 2020 we work to support the sustainable activities of the local population, such as primary production and the development of forms of tourism that respect the land and its inhabitants (e.g. hiking, environmental, geological, archaeological, rural tourism, climbing or diving, etc.).
