Emerging concepts such as geodiversity, geographical heritage sites, geomonuments, geoparks and geotourism are increasingly being used by conservationists. At present, the development of geoparks is a major global theme involving the application of geosciences to promote the inclusive growth of society and the protection and conservation of our unique geoheritage. Currently, there are 147 UNESCO global geoparks across 41 countries, in addition to a number of national-level geoparks. Pursuing a holistic approach towards such sites will sensitise the general public to the need for geoconservation of significant geosites and promote it through geotourism. It is a crucial issue, as various countriesaround the world are eager to develop their geoparks and are working for the conservation of geoheritage sites at the national level. This unique book gathers contributions from 15 countries in the form of case studies analysing the realities on of geographical heritage, geoparks and geotourism. The respective chapters address the role of geoparks as essential tools for education, recreation and nature conservation. Given its scope, the book offers a valuable guide for geoscientists, planners, policymakers, civil society and anyone concerned about the conservation of geoheritage sites and geoparks for a sustainable future Earth. . 410 0$aAdvances in Geographical and Environmental Sciences,$x2198-3550 606 $aGeography 606 $aGeology 606 $aConservation biology 606 $aEcology 606 $aTourism 606 $aManagement 606 $aSustainability 606 $aRegional Geography 606 $aGeology 606 $aConservation Biology 606 $aTourism Management 606 $aSustainability 615 0$aGeography. 615 0$aGeology. 615 0$aConservation biology. 615 0$aEcology. 615 0$aTourism. 615 0$aManagement. 615 0$aSustainability. 615 14$aRegional Geography. 615 24$aGeology. 615 24$aConservation Biology. 615 24$aTourism Management. 615 24$aSustainability. 676 $a338.4791 702 $aSingh$b Ram Bali 702 $aWei$b Dongying 702 $aAnand$b Subhash$f1972- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910863129803321 996 $aGlobal Geographical Heritage, Geoparks and Geotourism$92587238 997 $aUNINA
