Cultural Genome of Cultural Landscapes Erjavec Iztok, Duško Aleksovski https://iale2025.sav.sk/ I will present new integrated, data-driven approache supported by new methods, and knowledge sources based on material and non-material cultural heritage for insight into new realms of integrated landscape ecology research. Archaeology, ethnology and biology are interconnected in European landscapes and cultural landscapes are systems of interaction between human and nature, systems of interactions between natural and cultural heritage. We don’t have only endangered habitats but also endangered cultures in European landscapes and together with nature we are also losing cultures of these landscapes. In Slovenia a new term has been defined by Pleterski (2014), “cultural genome”. Just as the biological genome determines our biological appearance, the cultural genome determines our cultural appearance. It is a set of knowledge about how the world works and the rules derived from it that govern individual and community life. This knowledge and these rules change according to changes in the environment, the economy, and social relations. Knowledge and rules can be considered...

Impressions of Lisa HERLEDANT, a volunteer from France, who joined us in July to learn about biodiversity in the field where we introduced her to the functioning of complex natural systems through our projects: https://youtu.be/S4vXcLZ_kvA “I’m 19 and I’ve been living in Paris for two years to study international business. I chose these studies because I’d like to become a buyer, a buyer in circular fashion. In fact, ever since I was very young, I’ve been very committed to the environment and ecology. That’s why I decided to go to Slovenia in July to learn more about biodiversity. In fact, thanks to the French association ZELLIDJA, I have the opportunity to make a documentary on biodiversity in Slovenia. Today we’re halfway through my trip, but I’ve been able to learn a lot thanks to several people, notably Iztok and Klemen from InTeRCeR, who helped me understand their research by showing me some of Slovenia’s beautiful and very interesting landscapes. As a result, I’m even more aware that nature and...

Ustvarjamo prihodnost, učimo se iz preteklosti, 5-9 julij 2021, Varšava, Poljska Evropski kongres krajinske ekologije IALE 2022 želi izpostaviti krajinsko ekologijo kot transdisciplinarno platformo, ki povezuje preteklost, sedanjost in prihodnost. Ta pristop je še posebej potreben zdaj, ko se svet sooča z globalnimi izzivi, kot so podnebna kriza, izguba biotske raznovrstnosti, onesnaževanje okolja, množične migracije in urbanizacija. Celostni krajinski pristop k kompleksnim kulturno-okoljskim sistemom – kar je bistvo krajinske ekologije – zagotavlja popoln okvir za kombiniranje transdisciplinarnih orodij in perspektiv za boljše razumevanje raznolikih pojavov in procesov okoli nas ter za njihovo predvidevanje in ustrezno upravljanje. Zato se želimo učiti iz preteklih izkušenj in znanja, da prevzamemo odgovornost za oblikovanje trajnostnih krajin in družb prihodnosti. Žal je zaradi težav s Covid19 kongres potekal preko spleta in tudi kongres se je prestavil za eno leto Na tem kongresu smo imeli predstavitev najnovejšega projekta Krajine v...
