Cultural Heritage and Sustainability

Cultural heritage refers to the traditions, monuments, artwork, and practices that reflect a community’s history and identity. Sustainability involves using resources responsibly to meet current needs without compromising the ability of future generations to do the same. Combining these concepts means protecting and preserving cultural sites, artifacts, and practices in ways that are environmentally responsible and economically viable. It ensures that cultural legacy continues to enrich communities while minimizing environmental impact and ensuring resources are available for future generations. This balance promotes respect for history while fostering a healthy, sustainable future.
