Acci�nDescripciónStatus
Actividades t�cnicas/cient�ficasThe IUCN members that have proposed this Resolution, in coordination with the IUCN Focal Point for geoheritage topics, Tim Badman, have established a working group to develop a first version of Key Geoheritage Areas Guidelines. The IUCN WCC 2020 Resolution 074 requests the Director General and WCPA to: “...support the development of a detailed study envisaging the establishment of a future IUCN initiative on Key Geoheritage Areas, as a complement to the existing Key Biodiversity Areas programme, in order to protect geoheritage sites of global conservation significance and move towards more integrated nature conservation”.On-going
Indique cuáles han sido los resultados/logros obtenidos en el marco de las actividades realizadas: 
The present version of the guidelines is the result of several interactions inside the working group (by e-mail and online meetings) and can be considered a seminal document aiming to get feedback from other geoheritage experts/organisations about this new international conservation initiative, as well as inside IUCN.
¿Qué esfuerzos se están llevando a cabo para superar dichos obstáculos?: 
The main challenges will come ahead! Once the guidelines are defined, it will be necessary to engage IUCN in this initiative and invite other relevant organisations to establish a partnership that will assure the KGA's governance.
