The CIAO specialty group is a dynamic space for geographers, Islanders and others committed to critical theory and social justice to co-create knowledge specific to islands, archipelagos and oceans. It strives to a) expand critical thought b) address pertinent issues concerning the social, economic, cultural and political life in these geographies, especially those identified by island/er communities, c) promote exchange of research and teaching ideas among scholars working in and/or thinking with these geographies, and d) support island/er communities and their social movements in their efforts towards social and gender equality, ecological protection, Indigenous and migrant rights, climate justice, among other interests.
