Linking ancient volcanic elements to active volcanism –
volcanic geoheritage as an avenue to build resilient
society to understand volcanic processes
May 20–24, 2024
Jičín, Czech Republic
After successful Volcandpark meetings in Olot (2012) and Lanzarote
(2016), and after a global pandemic break, we are pleased to announce a
new event to bring together experts in valuation, protection, education
and management of volcanic areas. This time we are going to meet in a
seemly calm area, but one with dynamic volcanic history and
inspirational experience in all aspects of volcanic geoheritage.
The objective is to gather experts with a wide breadth of expertise and
also different experience from numerous regions across the world to
spread new ideas, concepts and techniques in management and
popularization of volcanic heritage. The ultimate goal is to contribute
to building a more resilient society, better understanding volcanic
processes, both physical and societal, and hence be better prepared for
volcanic threats and threats to volcanic geoheritage.
The meeting will take place in Jičín, a historical town, and
gateway to the Bohemian Paradise UNESCO Global Geopark. Jičín is
situated in a picturesque landscape crowned with erosional remnants of
Miocene monogenetic volcanoes. The volcanic heritage of the Bohemian
Paradise and also other nearby volcanic areas, together with some
innovative concepts of geoheritage presentation and popularization,
will be presented during several scheduled field-trips. |
