- Abstract
The county of Krapina-Zagorje and the Croatian section of ECOVAST organized in Tuheljske Toplice a twoday international workshop The landscape of Hrvatsko zagorje: past, present and future prospects thus bringing together about 70 scientists and experts on landscape from various specialized fields. Landscape is one of the greatest assets and a significant component of Croatia’s spatial identity. Croatia signed the European Landscape Convention and thus assumed its responsibility for its landscape recognition and legal protection and for incorporating it into its regional and urban-planning policies. In order to stimulate a more responsible attitude to landscape values, the workshop participants empahsized the need to develop a landscape policy aimed at raising the awareness of landscape values and the need to protect it, manage changes and use its potential in sustainable development. The existing legal regulations on landscape need to be coordinated with the Affirmation of the European Landscape Convention Act. It is also necessary to standardize terminology as well as to coordinate specialist terms and their meanings. In view of landscape preservation it is necessary to support studies aimed at the process of landscape recognition, documentation and evaluation on state, county and local levels. Landscape potential may be exploited in the context of sustainable development and in fostering the quality of life by taking the opportunity to become integrated into the European cooperation network.
