via ICOMOS: ICOMOS is accepting applications for its 2nd edition of the Culture-Nature Prize until May 31, 2024. This prize aims to promote and support outstanding Culture-Nature initiatives by its members that effectively blend cultural and natural heritage. Projects eligible for the €15,000 prize will demonstrate innovative connections between culture and nature and contribute significantly to heritage conservation, amidst challenges like climate change and urbanization.
Culture-Nature initiatives recognise the interconnections between cultural and natural heritage and rethink how we can protect culture and nature through a comprehensive approach with local communities. Through integrated protection, management and sustainable development of our heritage places, Culture-Nature initiatives build resilience to today’s challenges of climate change, pollution and rapid urbanisation.
The prize will be given to a project under implementation, which addresses connections between culture and nature and makes a significant contribution to the heritage field in an innovative and effective way.
ICOMOS members, Committees and Working Groups are eligible to apply.
Entries can be related to tangible or intangible heritage. Their scope can be ranging from small to large, from local to international.
