| Countryside |
|
| The
Countryside Committee has a facilitating role, servicing the
needs of the members and committee of the ALGAO in all matters
concerning archaeology and the countryside. |
| |
| Sustainable
development is an important objective in rural as well as urban
settings. The Association promotes good practice in sustainable
and integrated archaeological and countryside conservation management,
e.g. through improved sites and landscape management techniques.
To this end the Committee will encourage the adoption of good
practice at all levels and will seek to promote integrated sites
management works undertaken by members as exemplars of good
practice. Such emphasis will be extended into the wider public
arena to raise awareness and promote further the links between
archaeology and the landscape. |
| |
| It also
aims to ensure early and effective input into the development
of government policy and advice to ensure that management of
archaeological sites and historic landscapes is considered as
an intrinsic component of wider countryside management.
The Association
works with other countryside conservation agencies to achieve
this objective. |
