== A.1 Landscape layers and their system context ==
=== Geomorphology, landscape units and coastal typology ===
The coastal landscape of Al-Mina changed and developed over the years, with the urban sprawl happening. Moreover, the infrastructure on the coast is old and slowly deteriorating. The Al-Mina coast consists of 3 main parts, the man made parts, the rocky parts ( verimitidae platforms) and the sandy dunes. As seen, the vermitidae platforms are the most present around the coast, but slowly, a lot of man made harbors are taking over, making the coast more constructed and geometric rather than being kept at its natural state. It is important for the natural ecosystems, that these vermitidae be protect by all means. These rocky platforms are living shells that decrease the chances of tsunamis and high waves on the shore.

Mina, Lebanon has very strong traditions and crafts that have been significant and present for decades. Due to Mina’s geographical location, it is heavily known for its fishing activities, which eventually lead to various stores and restaurants regarding this idea. Additionally, Mina has a very prominent culture in arts and crafts such as pottery, copper, and cloth making. These arts supported the city of Mina economically and socially for the years.

= D. Process Reflection =
*''Mina has proven to be a challenge due to many stakeholders involved: projects need to be responding to everyone’s needs.
Mina Municipality wasn’t cooperative as much as we hoped, they are financially unable to implement any project.
40% of Mina families are under the line of poverty which leads them to be uninterested in implementing projects that don’t generate profit.
For a better outcome, the interaction with Mina residents and locals should be enhanced in order to understand their needs and use it for better projects ideas. ''

= A Landscape System Analysis =

== A.1 Landscape layers and their system context ==
=== Geomorphology, landscape units and coastal typology ===
The coastal landscape of Al-Mina changed and developed over the years, with the urban sprawl happening. Moreover, the infrastructure on the coast is old and slowly deteriorating. The Al-Mina coast consists of 3 main parts, the man made parts, the rocky parts ( verimitidae platforms) and the sandy dunes. As seen, the vermitidae platforms are the most present around the coast, but slowly, a lot of man made harbors are taking over, making the coast more constructed and geometric rather than being kept at its natural state. It is important for the natural ecosystems, that these vermitidae be protect by all means. These rocky platforms are living shells that decrease the chances of tsunamis and high waves on the shore.

Mina Municipality wasn’t cooperative as much as we hoped, they are financially unable to implement any project.
40% of Mina families are under the line of poverty which leads them to be uninterested in implementing projects that don’t generate profit.

= A Landscape System Analysis =

== A.1 Landscape layers and their system context ==
=== Geomorphology, landscape units and coastal typology ===
The coastal landscape of Al-Mina changed and developed over the years, with the urban sprawl happening. Moreover, the infrastructure on the coast is old and slowly deteriorating. The Al-Mina coast consists of 3 main parts, the man made parts, the rocky parts ( verimitidae platforms) and the sandy dunes. As seen, the vermitidae platforms are the most present around the coast, but slowly, a lot of man made harbors are taking over, making the coast more constructed and geometric rather than being kept at its natural state. It is important for the natural ecosystems, that these vermitidae be protect by all means. These rocky platforms are living shells that decrease the chances of tsunamis and high waves on the shore.

=== Sacred spaces and heritage ===

Mina, Lebanon has very strong traditions and crafts that have been significant and present for decades. Due to Mina’s geographical location, it is heavily known for its fishing activities, which eventually lead to various stores and restaurants regarding this idea. Additionally, Mina has a very prominent culture in arts and crafts such as pottery, copper, and cloth making. These arts supported the city of Mina economically and socially for the years.

Mina Municipality wasn’t cooperative as much as we hoped, they are financially unable to implement any project.
40% of Mina families are under the line of poverty which leads them to be uninterested in implementing projects that don’t generate profit.
For a better outcome, the interaction with Mina residents and locals should be enhanced in order to understand their needs and use it for better projects ideas. ''

Mina, Lebanon has very strong traditions and crafts that have been significant and present for decades. Due to Mina’s geographical location, it is heavily known for its fishing activities, which eventually lead to various stores and restaurants regarding this idea. Additionally, Mina has a very prominent culture in arts and crafts such as pottery, copper, and cloth making. These arts supported the city of Mina economically and socially for the years.

*''Has the landscape been painted or otherwise depicted, when and whom? Which elements are essential?''
*''Which narratives exist? Who has written about this landscape or depicted it in some way?''
*''You can add text and images''

*''This a text contribution, max 250 words''

== B.2 Mapping ==
*''As defined by your assessment strategy you conduct the mapping and present your findings here''
*''As a minimum, at least three different themes need to be mapped, you may choose more if needed''
