    For three quarters of a century, Central and Eastern Europe has been the target for British ‘anthropological’ area studies conducted by adult amateur as well as university groups, with Slovenia as a particular focus. Two earlier studies of Sol ~ avsko, in 1932 and 1970– 71 based on the Le Play Society’s analytical troika ‘Place, Work and Folk’ (which prefigured the normative ‘environment, economy and society’ of present-day sustainability discourse) have provided a historical background to recent (2004–07) joint Ljubljana-London univer- sity fieldwork in the area. The ethos of this early anthropological tourism emphasised mutuality (surveys were to be participatory, undertaken with rather than of local peoples) and diversity (the variety of ways that the relationships between environment, economy and society were manifest in different places). The ethos is perhaps best manifest in the elaboration of management strategies and governance structures for European protected landscapes (as exemplified by the proposed new Kamniško-Savinjske Alpe regional park). The issue of tourism and sustainability provides a link between past, present and future

    A report on the Heritage Lottery Funded Caradon Hill Area Heritage Project (CHAHP). The evaluation has been designed to provide an independent assessment of what CHAHP projects have delivered (their outputs), what the benefits (outcomes) have been for heritage and people and what lasting impact CHAHP will have made (its legacy). This Report identifies what CHAHP has achieved, celebrates its successes and considers what difference it has made to the area. It also considers what may not have worked so well and the lessons that may be drawn for the future

    Living Wandle (LW) is the National Lottery's first urban Landscape Partnership (LP) Scheme. Focused on the catchment of the River Wandle and covering parts of the London Boroughs of Croydon, Merton, Sutton and Wandsworth, its distinctive features include a largely built-up landscape with high population density, diverse communities including areas of social deprivation, but with many public open spaces and a great deal of ongoing activity. LW’s vision has been to secure: “A vibrant healthy, sustainable, multi-functional landscape in which people recognise and are inspired by the natural and cultural heritage of the valley and river”. At an overall cost of £2.6m, supported with £1.9m of Heritage Lottery Fund grant, LW’s 28 delivery partners have delivered a programme of over 30 separately costed projects which together address the four HLF programme aims of heritage conservation, community engagement, access and learning, and training and skills. This final evaluation celebrates the scheme's achievements, identifies lessons learnt, and assesses the future for a potential new Regional Park in the area
