The most recent edition of the Parks Stewardship Forum (PSF), entitled “Politics, Practice, and the Management of Living Landscapes,” was guest-edited by Brenda Barrett and Eleanor Mahoney from the Living Landscape Observer. This issue examines the conservation of living landscapes at sites worldwide.
What are the best ways to identify and conserve rural landscapes? Since 2012, participants at a series of international meetings have sought to answer this complex question, in part through the development of a new set of shared general principles.
Private philanthropy has long played a critical role in supporting landscape conservation. To learn more about the future of the field, the Living Landscape Observer recently spoke with Jessica Brown, Executive Director of the New England Biolabs Foundation and Member, IUCN’s World Commission on Protected Areas and ICOMOS/IFLA International Scientific Committee on Cultural Landscapes. Brown co-organized a session at the ICOMOS General Assembly on “Reimagining Philanthropy: Supporting the Integration of Culture and Nature.” In this excerpt from the interview (part 1 in a series of excerpts), we explore the session’s inspiration, key takeaways, and reflections on the evolution of philanthropy in conservation.
