Module aim (aims)

As archaeological heritage comprises a distinct part of culture heritage and the nature is an intrinsic element of the past shared culture heritage conforming the local identity, the module intends to focus on different facets of integration of both types of heritage. As these two types of heritage operate in two largely impenetrable organizational frameworks, common concerns of both cultural and natural heritage have hardly been systematically defined. Hence, the course’s objectives involve presentation of different aspects of integration of cultural and natural heritage. It aims at understanding the environmental impact of cultural heritage and significance of natural heritage for regulations and practices in the domain of cultural heritage. It also fosters the assessment of transversal skills and promotes the take-up of practical entrepreneurial experiences in education and training.
