Two lectures, followed by workshops in the Škocjan Caves Regional Park, highlighted the importance of the landscape as heritage, as the result of our ancestors' efforts, and as such as the basis for collective memories and identitiy. The landscape reflects how people understood their environment and adapted it to their needs, considering the natural character of the environment and using available tools and technique. Evidences of the economic, social, political situation are engraved in the landscape, as well as personal and collective memory of the community, which has shaped and continues to shape the landscape. The interplay of natural and anthropogenic factors has also created landscapes that are of particular importance to members of society, and have become recognizable in the wider society as a whole by their uniqueness or typicality

Participants were presented with different ways of preserving and protecting the landscape's identity: within the system of cultural heritage protection, as part of protected areas in the system of nature conservation, using trademarks, through agricultural policy measures, and, last but not least, through spatial planning procedures.
