Alyki serves as a protected habitat for diverse flora and fauna, including endangered species. By preserving it we contribute to the conservation of terrestrial biodiversity. The health of Alyki’s ecosystem is interconnected with the marine environment of the Corinthian Gulf. Protecting the wetlands helps maintain water quality and contributes overall to the health of marine ecosystems. Alyki’s proximity to Aigio highlights the importance of urban-rural linkages in sustainable development. Alyki contributes to the sustainability of the local community while fostering environmental awareness through eco-tourism. Alyki is affected by climate change, with fluctuating water levels and altered conditions impacting its ecosystem. By implementing adaptive management strategies and promoting community involvement in climate resilience efforts, Alyki contributes to broader initiatives aimed at mitigating and adapting to climate change impacts.
