Popis: Traditional practices of cultivating and gathering of food in rural areas embody the entangled dimensions of nature and culture. These traditional landscapes and waterscapes, living repositories of bio-cultural diversity, have much to teach us about resilience. This is manifest in the intangible and tangible cultural heritage associated with these places, including the physical shaping of the landscape and water systems; their complex systems of traditional knowledge, governance and management practices; and their sacred dimensions. This workshop will build on sessions recently convened within the Culture-Nature/Nature-Culture Journeys ICOMOS Scientific Symposium (2017) and the IUCN World Conservation Congress (2016), which provided an opportunity to share experience from diverse regions on the theme of constructing resilience.In this session we will take the dialogue further, and will explore how frameworks being developed through global dialogues (such as the indicators of resilience in socio-ecological production landscapes used by the International Partnership of the Satoyama Initiative, or IPSI) can contribute to strategies for sustaining rural landscapes in diverse settings.
