In the frame of the project LIFE Andros Park, semi-structured in-depth interviews and a focus group organized as a world café, took place in Andros in January 2018 as part of a first round of stakeholder engagement.

Participants included representatives and members of the fishing and agriculture sectors, beekeepers, representatives of the tourism sector, social enterprises and ecotourism-activities representatives active on the island. The aim was to identify the specific vulnerabilities and opportunities related to the sustainable development and resilience building of the Andros Natura 2000 sites by using a bottom-up approach and deliberative, interactive methods.
