Island Labs

Where Local Challenges Meet Global Solutions

At ICMS 2025, Island Labs are immersive spaces of co-creation where local voices present pressing ocean challenges and participants from diverse backgrounds come together to design transdisciplinary responses.


These labs are not panels — they are dynamic, problem-driven sessions where scientists, engineers, policy makers, entrepreneurs, and community leaders collaborate as equals to imagine tangible, scalable solutions.

More challenges will be revealed soon — stay tuned and get ready to dive in.
