摘要
One step forward from chapter three, this chapter focuses on cultural heritageCultural heritage and climate changeClimate change impact by investigating meaningful gaps that hide failures and opportunities to achieve success in tackling the impact of climate changeClimate change on cultural heritageCultural heritage on diverse scales. Like the previous chapter, it tracks the gaps in four categories. However, more predominantly, significant institutional/organizational/managerial and technical gaps are under investigation, concentrating on the climate changeClimate change debates in the heritageHeritage framework. In particular, this chapter delves into the notion of adaptationAdaptation to climate changeClimate change, looking into the typologies of its opportunities, constraints, and limits. At the same time, the section dedicated to practical considerations informs us about the way to move forward, from strengthening systemicSystemic, swifter, and faster adaptationAdaptation actions to improving scientific and narrative-based knowledgeKnowledge, managing uncertaintiesUncertainties, and having effective integration of indigenous and local knowledgeKnowledge systems. The final section of this chapter provides us with a rational understanding of the barriersBarriers in the adaptationAdaptation process. Considering the characteristics of climate adaptationAdaptation barriersBarriers regarding cultural heritageCultural heritage, this section explores the principles of effective adaptation strategiesAdaptation strategies.
