The 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”. |
