Dear supporters of this petition

Overbuilding is becoming a significant issue on our islands, irreversibly distorting the Cycladic landscape. This situation exacerbates challenges related to water and waste management as well as traffic congestion. Residents often feel powerless as these issues emerge, particularly when regulations are poorly enforced and authorities frequently neglect their responsibilities.

Reality has demonstrated that seeking independent technical and legal expertise to challenge irregularities is the most effective action. However, this requires funding.

The Friends of Paros, one of the supporters of this petition, aims to establish a special fund to cover the costs of such expertise and legal support. We kindly ask for your participation in this funding initiative, according to your means.

Your contribution, no matter the size, will help civil society take meaningful action to preserve the unique beauty of Paros and Antiparos.

Please transfer your contribution to the Friends of Paros account with the note "fund legal expertise." If you would like, email info@friendsofparos.com to inform us if you wish to remain anonymous or not.

Thank you for standing with us in this important cause!
