UNESCO Global Geoparks
UNESCO Global Geoparks are designated areas that promote the conservation of geological heritage while fostering sustainable development. These parks highlight the importance of geological features, landscapes, and the relationship between people and their environment. They aim to educate visitors about Earth’s history and promote local culture and traditions.
Geoparks encourage eco-tourism and community involvement, providing economic benefits to local populations. They also serve as platforms for scientific research and education, helping to raise awareness about geological processes and environmental issues. By integrating conservation and development, UNESCO Global Geoparks contribute to the sustainable management of natural resources.
