"Working with people is at the heart of the [protected landscapes] concept and it is abundantly clear to me that protection of landscapes and the beauty and biodiversity they contain can be achieved only through cooperation and not coercion." - P.H.C. Bing Lucas, Vice Chair for World Heritage, IUCN
