About this document
Cultural Heritage of Wetland Landscapes is a document available to read on EtoBox.
For millennia, humans have settled in and transformed wetlands, often cultivating rice, salt production, and aquaculture and creating truly cultural landscapes. Examples include rice terraces in the Philippines that have been maintained for over 2,000 years, salt production around the Mediterranean dating back to Roman times, and fishing structures in wetlands globally. These cultural wetland landscapes represent invaluable heritage and are living records of human occupation.
