Descrição

The Côa Valley Archaeological Park embodies a singular instance of prehistoric art from across the globe. The park's status as a World Heritage Site introduces a central conservation challenge. The outlining of a conservation plan must consider a few relevant variables as the exposure to meteoric elements, the impact of human activity on the land, and tourism. These factors must be considered in the context of the Anthropocene. The current paradigm of action is oriented towards to a resilience heritage promotion basis which frames within a line of sustainable conservation whose premises focus on the development of preventive strategies and programed conservation guidelines.
