  Sustainable Food in Tourism and Hospitality

  Food is an essential component of tourism. In recent years, a wide range of publications has addressed interrelationships of food and tourism from perspectives including authenticity, innovation, and regional development.

  Living in Landscapes: Knowledge, Practice, Imagination

  Landscape is where humans dwell. Here we work, think, dream, love, raise new generations, and interact with other living beings, the earth and the sea. Humans and other living beings have time-space rhythms. So does the milieu. Ways of life are established and change with the passage of time, as does the landscape. A part of the past lives on in each woman and man; and in every landscape live bits of the past. Life in a landscape is a complex whole, a process, involving the past, present and future In this context, knowledge, practice, and imagination are the principal themes to be addressed at the conference.

We expect that an improved understanding of these issues will facilitate the fostering and advancement of future research on the resilience and sustainable management of cultural landscapes.
