Islands are isolated habitats with high biodiversity and many endemic species. They are particularly vulnerable to climate change and invasive species.

Challenges

• Sea-level rise threatening land and freshwater
• Invasive species outcompeting native species
• Limited resources and overdevelopment

Solutions

• Promoting sustainable tourism and development
• Controlling invasive species
• Conservation education and island restoration
