International Geodiversity Day 2023 UNESCO Global Geoparks host unique geological heritage sites of international significance! Some of these outstanding geological heritage sites in UNESCO Global Geoparks, are included among the 100 first IUGS Geological Heritage Sites, that mark important moments in Earth history and evolution. The Global Geoparks Network celebrates the International Geodiversity Day 2023 promoting these exceptional sites in collaboration with IUGS and other international initiatives. Collaboration between all international initiatives involved with geoheritage and geodiversity can lead to their further appreciation, to their sustainable use as educational resources, and, most importantly, to their preservation for the good of society, for future generations, and for our Planet’s well-being. The Global Geoparks Network encourages all 195 UNESCO Global Geoparks to participate in the celebration of the the International Geodiversity Day 2023 and organize events with the involvement of their local communities, visitors and local schools!
