| dc.description.abstract | In Portugal, in recent decades, there has been an increase in the population and cities located on the coast and, on the contrary, a decrease in inland locations, with greater severity in rural areas. The causes are complex and not consensual, but it is clear that factors such as the lack of investment in the interior, emigration and migration to a coast that is increasingly autistic in its relationship with the rest of the territory, the abandonment of agriculture and aging of the population constitute sufficient ingredients to promote the desertification of some areas of the country. The abandonment and desertification of villages is not just a problem in Portugal, however. Although Portugal is one of the countries most affected by this problem that affects the entire national territory, it is a European problem that has been increasing since the second half of the 20th century. Concerned about this fact, which puts at risk the high level of abandonment of villages and places in the interior of Portugal, particularly those located in the northeast of Trás-os-Montes, the InHaVit Project - Sustainable approaches for the rehabilitation and revitalization of the cultural heritage built in the Montesinho Natural Park ( PNM), funded by FCT – Fundação de Ciência e Tecnologia, has as its main objective the evaluation and characterization of: (1) the rural built environment of the PNM, at the level of buildings and at the level of villages; and (2) socioeconomic and environmental factors that contribute to the vulnerability of PNM villages and vernacular architecture. In-depth knowledge of these aspects will help to understand the reasons why the villages were progressively abandoned. In the end, the project will propose strategies for risk mitigation, rehabilitation and conservation of built heritage, recognizing that the appreciation and preservation of vernacular architecture is a key element of cultural identity and that it can become a privileged factor for local development. This article aims to show the work methodology relating to the “in-situ” survey carried out so far, relating to point (1), as well as some very particular aspects of this region, namely the slate roofs and the water mills. | pt_PT |
