ملخص: يتناول هذا المقال مسألة المحافظة المندمجة أو الصون المتكامل للتراث الصخري من خلال اعتماد إحدى آليات التدبير، وهي ”الإطار المنطقي“. وهذا ليس اختياراً عفوياً، بل تبرره أهمية ومكانة هذا التراث الأثري المتجذر في تاريخ المغرب، والذي هو موضوع اهتمام متزايد بسبب القضايا والقيم المرتبطة به. علاوة على ذلك، وعلى الرغم من أهميته الكبيرة، فإن هذا التراث يواجه حاليًا تحديات كبيرة مرتبطة بهشاشته وأساليب إدارته المعتمدة. كما أن الجهود المبذولة في مجال البحث والحماية تفتقر إلى الوضوح والتكامل، خاصة وأن قيمه الاجتماعية والبيئية والاقتصادية لا تحظى بالأولوية المطلوبة. الكلمات المفاتيح : التراث الاثري – الفن الصخري – الاطار المنطقي – المحافظة المندمجة Abstract : This paper examines the issue of integrated conservation of rock art sites through the introduction and implementation of one of the management mechanisms, the ‘logical framework’. This is not a spontaneous choice, but is justified by the importance of this archaeological heritage rooted in Morocco's history, and which is the subject of growing interest because of the increasingly complex issues and values associated with it. What's more, despite its great importance, this heritage is currently facing major challenges, linked to its fragility and the management methods adopted. The efforts made in the field of research and protection lack visibility and complementarity, especially as its social, environmental and economic values are not given the required priority.
