Cultural Landscapes as a Driver of Local Development. Collaborative Decision-Making Processes for the Promotion of Resilient Landscapes

The paper presents a multi-methodological, hybrid, and adaptive evalu- ation approach to support the development of improvement strategies and identify alternative tourism routes for promoting resilient landscapes. The approach intro- duces a Multi-Stakeholder Spatial Decision Analysis (M-SSDA), which combines Multi-Stakeholder Decision Analysis (M-SDA) with GIS processing to facilitate interaction among the different stakeholders involved in establishing a common vision. The reliability of the decision-making process is increased by using multiple techniques. This is achieved through collaboration among local stakeholders, researchers, experts, private entities, and local government to identify the perceived values of the landscape. This collaboration aims to identify shared values that are essential for testing new approaches to resource management and identifying thematic routes to promote sustainable tourism in the Sila National Park (Italy).
