2011年國際地景保育會議於10月4-5日於台灣台北舉行,參與會議的代表一致通過下列共識,並簽署地景保育2011台北宣言,宣言如下:

一、地景保育應列為國家重要議題,因為地景保育非僅以國土安全和環境健全完整為指導原則,更以台灣對全球環境的責任為要務。地景保育對於環境的綜合與廣泛關照的正當性,建立在它對台灣社會的自然環境與人文、社會、經濟與文化議題的關懷與瞭解。

二、為了造福代代子孫,維持永續地景保育需具策略性,重要策略有: (1)建置具特殊科學意義的地景之網絡;(2)發展具有區域重要性的景點之網絡;(3)發展有利於地景保育的科技;(4)改善地景登錄及登錄工具方法;(5)提升社會大眾對地景保育的識覺,認識動態的地球環境;(6)參與國際地景網絡並強化其機能,以利地景保育之進行。

三、地景保育可採取各種視野、面向與方法來實踐,我們最應正視其步驟與程序的問題。地質公園概念的實踐可做為其基礎,因為地質公園強調自然地景環境外,也重視活化經濟以維繫在地人文的社會與文化襲產。

四、地質公園的概念強調自然地景與人類地理生活環境之間的關係,兩者互為表裡。理解當地地景在全國或全球的特殊性與獨特性,地方可以發展獨特的地景經濟,進而維繫在地的社會、文化。

五、全球化下的台灣具有特殊的經濟、社會與教育環境背景,在如此條件下,地景保育不但需要國家的倡議與地方的行動,也需要學習全球經驗。透過多元面向的學習,才能保證永續的地景保育。

六、台灣的地景保育及其網絡發展,需要法規做後盾與行政的支持。地景保育的成功,建立在環境法規與行政資源能確保自然環境和人文環境的均衡發展,並建構環境與社會經濟永續的台灣。

七、推動地景保育可以成為動員在地力量的引擎,使在地居民投入環境保育,並積極貢獻於利用在地特殊自然與人文環境,以積極規劃社區的社會文化發展;透過有效的溝通整合各種權益關係人,以形成共識,以期地景保育造福後代。

八、透過景點與地景網絡的經營管理,在地社區可以於參與觀摩與學習分享中,發現當地地景的利基。確保地景保育能進而推動地景多樣性的經營,避免地景不當的開發利用致生災害。
九、推動在地的地景保育教育訓練,對於地景保育的深化有絕對的重要性。在地紮根的教育訓練,提供地景保育工作交流學習平台,互相分享習得的珍貴經驗,可以確保成功的地景保育工作。

十、參與國際地景保育工作,並持續推動台灣地景保育,是刻不容緩之事;如此作為不僅能使台灣保持先驅的地景保育概念與行動實踐,也是台灣貢獻於全球環境的里程碑。

The International Conference of Landscape Conservation was held in Taipei, TAIWAN on October 4 and 5, 2011. All the delegates affirmed the following declaration:

1.Landscape conservation is to be placed among the most important national agendas. Landscape conservation not only values national territorial security and environmental integrity, but acts out of national responsibility for the global environment. Such comprehensive concern is legitimate because landscape conservation has both physical and human socio-cultural impacts.

2.Strategies for sustaining landscape conservation to benefit future generations include: (1) maintaining a network for sites of specific scientific interest, (2) networking for regionally important geo-sites, (3) developing new technologies for landscape conservation, (4) improving landscape inventory recording, (5) promoting public awareness by understanding the systematic global environment, and (6) developing international networks and enhancing its functioning for landscape conservation.

3.Landscape conservation could be implemented from various perspectives and in different ways, but we must prioritize its procedures to benefit society as we proceed. The implementation of the Geopark concept is an excellent way to achieve natural landscape conservation and to sustain the human socio-cultural heritage and economic life.

4.The Geopark concept values the integrated treatment of both geological and human geographical environments. By integrating the natural and the human environments, our society, socio-cultural life and economic livelihood can be sustained by the distinctive environment and geological history of each place.

5.Due to the diverse and challenging economic, social and educational context of Taiwan in the global era, the landscape conservation concept and its implementation demand support from not only national and local initiatives, but also initiatives out of the global experience. Such multilayered initiatives will ensure sustainable landscape conservation.

6.A Taiwan Landscape Conservation network with legislative support and administrative enlightenment is needed to ensure the implementation of both natural and human conservation as a sound environmental and social base for a sustainable Taiwan.

7.Landscape conservation should serve as an engine for the mobilization of local people to become involved in local environmental conservation and to become active in planning their own socio-economic future. Integrating all stakeholders through effective communication guarantees the good practice of landscape conservation.

8.By networking among sites and networks, local communities become proactive in identifying their own niche in geo-conservation. Geoconservation will then become a crucial means in enhancing geodiversity and a force in preventing geo-hazards.

9.Educational programs are significant for landscape conservation. Through the programs, landscape conservation networking becomes one of the platforms to learn and share. So that all sites can learn from each other and share experiences in making landscape conservation a success.

10.Maintaining the momentum of Taiwan landscape conservation by contributing to global landscape conservation is crucial. It is the best way not only to keep updated, but also to share experience and to contribute to the global society.
