Abstract

Protecting and reinforcing the power of landscape in landscape parks through social cooperation. Landscape parks (nature parks) are important aspects of the system of nature conservation in Poland. The resources in these parks are managed by park authorities through the Landscape Park Protection Plans, as constrained by the Act on Nature Conservation (2004). Nonetheless, few of the parks have a Protection Plan in force. This paper focuses on the importance of public participation both in preparing the Protection Plans and in implementing their ideas. The current state of landscape management in landscape parks is assessed and the main problems are identifi ed, with an emphasis on the lack of human resource management. The arguments are presented based on two examples from the Lower Silesia region of Poland: The Valley of Jezierzyca Landscape Park and the Chelmy Landscape Park.
