Abstract

This chapter presents several theoretical and qualitative features that characterize both the concepts of resilience and social resilience. Understanding them is fundamental to the proper comanagement of dynamic and shared cultural landscapes. Secondly, it discusses the primary and secondary drivers of change in worldwide UNESCO’s agricultural landscapes in order to integrate or update resilience tools in new and existing management plans. The scope is to build effective landscape resilience by stimulating the social component through a people-centred approach and local capacity building. It shows how communities have strong links with their landscapes and vice versa, where landscapes are made up of an interweaving of tangible and intangible heritage. Finally, concurrent strategies and actions are proposed from the short to the long term, taking into account the glocal, complex, Western context.
