Abstract

The postmodern society has an urgent need to develop effective strategies in favor of land management and risk prevention: priority objectives that are among the components of resilience. A fundamental tool to achieve these goals is the shared knowledge of the environment where we live. Modern GIS effectively facilitates the whole society in this sense, thanks to its many functions. Moreover, it is perfectly compatible with the Landscape Ecology approach, which considers all the components that characterize the complexity of nature in an integrated way. Knowledge sharing is based on communication: new approaches privilege unconventional modes of communication based on people's emotional and experiential involvement. In this sense, sports in the natural environment become communicative vectors of the environment. Therefore, some case studies in the Marche region, recently hit by the earthquake, are examined. The project has taken care of the realization of a geo-hiking itinerary that connects various geosites of great landscape importance to offer society scientifically valid information about the territory during the tourist fruition of the same to raise awareness of the enhancement of the territory and risk prevention.
