These Guidelines are intended to help improve the conservation and management of geoheritage and geodiversity in protected and conserved areas and recognition of the interrelationships and interactions with biological features and processes.

These guidelines provide an update and expansion of the original Guidelines for Cave and Karst Protection, published in 1997. The original guidelines were primarily concerned with geoheritage, and while this remains an important consideration in this second edition, it also covers the biological issues involved in cave and karst conservation.

Dieser Richtlinie soll dazu beitragen, die Erhaltung und das Management des Geo-Naturerbes und der Geodiversität in Schutz- und Erhaltungsgebieten zu verbessern und die Zusammenhänge und Wechselwirkungen mit biologischen Merkmalen und Prozessen zu erkennen. Sie sind kein Lehrbuch für das Management des Schutzes des Geo-Naturerbes, sondern stellen vielmehr den wesentlichen Hintergrund, den Kontext und die Prinzipien dar.

Estas Diretrizes destinam-se a ajudar a melhorar a conservação e gestão do patrimônio geológico e da geodiversidade em áreas protegidas e a promover o reconhecimento das inter-relações e interações com aspectos e processos biológicos. Não se trata de um livro sobre práticas de gestão de geoconservação, mas antes uma apresentação dos antecedentes, contexto e princípios essenciais.

Ces Lignes directrices sont destinées à améliorer la conservation et la gestion du géopatrimoine et de la géodiversité dans les aires protégées et conservées, et à reconnaître les interrelations et interactions avec les caractéristiques et processus biologiques. Elles n’ont pas vocation à être un manuel sur les pratiques de gestion de la géoconservation, mais plutôt à présenter le contexte et les principes de base.
