About Indigo Civilization
The initiative led by The Indigo Civilization presents a transformative response to the global challenges of climate change, resource scarcity and sea level rise, with a focus on vulnerable island and coastal communities (about 400 million people impacted by rising sea levels alone by the end of the century according to the World Economic Forum).
We want to demonstrate that it is possible to adapt to climate change and rising sea levels, without fighting or fleeing the sea. We want to initiate a new form of symbiotic collaboration with the Ocean to transform constraints into opportunities. We want to contribute to the resilience and thriving of vulnerable communities and all the Ocean dwellers.
While these territories face acute risks, they also constitute unique potential opportunities thanks to the gradual expansion of a symbiotic and sustainable blue economy, benefiting all stakeholders and all living beings. The proposed adaptation and sustainable development solution is the Smart Offshore Ecosystem (SOE), which brings together modular, floating and biophilic infrastructures, and anchored beyond the coasts and lagoons, within territorial waters, to mitigate anthropogenic pressures on these fragile ecosystems.
Thanks to the cold, nutrient-rich deep waters, SOEs serve as adaptive platforms for food and energy self-sufficiency, socio-cultural development of the territory, profitable economic diversification and long-term adaptation to climate change in the territory. SOEs intelligently combine mature and emerging solutions, anthropogenic and natural, such as Ocean Thermal Energy or Marine Permaculture, to create new biophilic and viable synergies.
Our non-profit, general interest initiative combines scientific innovation, cultural respect, and collaboration between public and private actors. It aims to pave the way for a new human-ocean relationship, turning existential threats into opportunities contributing to 9 of the UN's SDGs.
