bridging funding gaps for heritage recovery on Greek islands with CSR

Miles SpencerSocial Responsibility

Greece’s islands blend remarkable cultural and natural heritage with pronounced economic fragility, as nearly 200–250 of them remain permanently inhabited and feature historic settlements, archaeological landmarks, traditional architecture, and living customs that shape local identity and fuel national tourism. Yet these islands also contend with shrinking populations, seasonal job patterns, constrained public funding, and climate-driven threats. Corporate social responsibility (CSR) can therefore become essential in supporting heritage restoration and reinforcing the social economy that underpins island communities throughout the entire year.Why CSR matters for heritage recovery and the social economyFunding gap. Public resources for restoration and maintenance are limited; CSR…
