Résumé (en anglais)

During Pinochet’s dictatorship, most of civil society and community organisations were restricted or banned, causing disaffection of citizens from public life and limiting social relations among neighbours. In addition, after the restoration of the democratic system, deepen neoliberal policies continued to promote individualism and lack of participation. However, during the last decades, and particularly after the earthquake and tsunami occurred in 2010 in Chile, several community organisations emerged to promote, recover and protect their local cultural heritage as an essential component of their identity. Beside the recognition of the risk faced by cultural and natural heritage due to its exposure to natural hazards, people have become aware about other hazards – even more dangerous-, including bureaucracy, gentrification, real estate speculation, lack of modern regulations, lack of incentives to protect heritage buildings, energy generation or mining projects, etc. Some communities have organised themselves to rebuild traditional adobe houses, some others to protect their neighbourhoods from the construction of high buildings -forcing changes in urban regulations-, and others are managing to promote traditional knowledge, the recovery of traditional construction techniques and intangible heritage, as well as to protect threatened natural heritage. Communities and other civil society organisations are not only safeguarding their own heritage but also making others in society aware about the importance of heritage for sustainable development, and for protecting and strengthening local identities. At the same time, people in different rural and urban areas have recovered previously lost social ties and have rebuilt their sense of space and belonging, creating and strengthening social capital, thus increasing their resilience and promoting sustainable development.
