The report by the Fondazione Scuola dei beni e delle attività culturali, published in January 2022, delves into the relationship between cultural heritage and climate change by addressing three key questions: the balance between individual and collective responsibility in preserving cultural heritage, the application of the “loss and damage” framework to cultural heritage, and the cognitive and emotional impacts of climate change on cultural heritage. The report highlights the necessity of integrating cultural heritage preservation into climate action plans and showcases various projects and initiatives addressing these challenges. It aims to connect theoretical strategies with practical applications, especially in urban contexts.
