Projet HERCULES: «paysages culturels européens à la croisée des chemins»

Le premier Atelier Européen des Parties Prenantes du projet HERCULES a eu lieu le 23 mai à Bruxelles. Intitulé «Paysages Culturels Européens dans un tournant », l’atelier organisé par l’Organisation européenne des Propriétaires Fonciers (ELO) a réuni 41 représentants de la Commission européenne, des experts, des ONG, des PME et de la communauté scientifique.

Financé par le septième programme-cadre (7e PC) de l’UE, le projet s’appuie sur le développement et l’application de technologies novatrices et des outils d’évaluation des paysages culturels. Les cinq objectifs du projet portent sur les thèmes clés de l’appel et forment la structure du projet :

  • Objectif 1: synthèse des connaissances existantes sur les causes, les types et les résultats de la persistance et du changement des paysages culturels d’Europe.
  • Objectif 2: réaliser des études de cas ciblées pour approfondir les connaissances sur les dynamiques et les valeurs des paysages culturels.
  • Objectif 3: élaborer une typologie des paysages culturels et appliquer les études de cas à plus large échelle à partir d’observations et de la modélisation du paysage.
  • Objectif 4: développer des visions pour le recouplage des composantes sociales et écologiques dans les paysages culturels et les traduire en des politiques et des options de gestion.
  • Objectif 5: concevoir et mettre en œuvre un centre de connaissances communautaire pour les bonnes pratiques d’aménagement paysager et le tester avec les utilisateurs des terres, les agences, les petites et moyennes entreprises, et les associations de citoyens.

Le projet étudie 9 paysages dans toute l’Europe, y compris ceux de montagnes telles que la vallée Obersimmental en Suisse, Rhône-Alpes en France et la vallée de Guadarrama en Espagne.

🧊 Glaciers matter for water, food and livelihoods in mountains and beyond. This is what we are highlighting this year on 11 December, International Mountain Day.Every year, this day provides an opportunity to emphasise the crucial importance of these areas in terms of natural resources, biodiversity, identity, cultural heritage, ways of life, and more resilient models. However, all of this is under threat from climate change, poorly targeted funding and negative perceptions of pastoral professions.Today, we are putting the spotlight on these endangered ice giants throughout our mountain ranges!Did you know that: 💧The Alps alone provide 40% of Europe's fresh water?💡Glacier retreat will reduce hydroelectric energy production by an average of 10% in the Alps and by up to 35% by 2070 compared to today?🌱68% of irrigated agricultural land in the plains depends directly on water runoff from the mountains? ⛰️By 2034 the Pyrenees will be ice-free?📢An appropriate governance of glacier is needed to counteract the rapid changes!🧊 By signing the manifesto for better European governance of glaciers alongside 80 other organisations, we are calling for immediate and targeted political responses to the economic, social and environmental impacts of climate change.Have a look 👉 www.euromontana.org/european-manifesto-for-a-governance-of-glaciers-and-connected-resources/ #IMD2025 #InternationalMountainDay #MountainsMatterMountain Partnership ...
