Landscapes and cultural heritage
Small islands often have remarkable landscapes, shaped by human activity, which reflect the tenuous link between nature and culture, and make local knowledge and practices tangible. often, these landscapes are strong identity landmarks for island communities.
Insular landscapes are important symbols and the visible expression of an often very rich cultural heritage – material and immaterial – reflecting practices, beliefs and customs that should be preserved.
