Come Turn the Tide on Prince Edward Island in 2025! This third international conference on Small Island States (SIS) and Subnational Island Jurisdictions (SNIJs) will bring together perspectives from around the world and across disciplines, for the first time in Canada’s smallest subnational island jurisdiction. The conference is, foremost, a way to share stories about climate change in the context of the lived experience of islandness.

Our 2025 conference will build upon its predecessors in Oranjestad, Aruba, and will include both in-person and online components. The Institute of Island Studies, the UNESCO Chair in Island Studies and Sustainability, and the Canadian Centre for Climate Change and Adaptation at the University of Prince Edward Island, as local hosts, look forward to engaging participants in both traditional and non-traditional formats. We also look forward to working once again with our conference co-host, the University of Aruba, and to working for the first time with Sophia University from Tokyo!
