📖 Local product: the bond between community, nature, and culture

Focusing on local products as a vital link between community and environment, this session addresses how protected landscapes have been shaped by human activity over centuries. Traditional paths, dry stone walls, crops, and rural trades reflect an inseparable cultural heritage within the natural world.

The conference aims to highlight joint initiatives between protected natural areas and ethnological museums, fostering discussion and professional collaboration across both fields.

🏛️ A dialogue between heritage and territory

As museums of the people, ethnology institutions play a fundamental role in preserving and sharing the relationship between communities and their land. The complete schedule is available on the Departament de Medi Ambient i Sostenibilitat website.
