Abstract

To speak of rural landscapes today means to have in mind a whole gamut of highly different contexts on a cline between urban and rural, nearly always endowed with a rich legacy of material and immaterial contexts. Many are the cultural landscapes at risk of depopulating, since the younger generations tend to leave the interior regions with weak economies. The loss is mostly in terms of human resources — small communities which have perpetuated cultural identities throughout history. This legacy is gradually vanishing due to the lack of adequate policies for the survival of material and immaterial resources as well as the lack of natural processes conveying knowledge and competences. The elderly population, and its virtual support of new ways of developing and valorising the territory, could help safeguarding the agrarian landscape, which can be so relevant in preserving the values of territories, landscapes and local economies.
