UNESCO names 18 new Geoparks

UNESCO’s Executive Board has endorsed the addition of 18 sites to the UNESCO Global Geoparks network. This brings the total number of geoparks to 213 in 48 countries.

The new geoparks are situated in Brazil, China, Croatia, Denmark, Finland, France, Greece, Hungary, Poland, Portugal and Spain. There is an additional new transboundary geopark spanning Belgium and the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

The UNESCO Global Geopark designation was created in 2015. It recognizes geological heritage of international significance.

Geoparks serve local communities by combining the conservation of their significant geological heritage with public outreach and a sustainable approach to development.

UNESCO continues to promote the geopark concept in regions where geoparks are less common, notably in Africa, the Arab States and Small Island Developing States. UNESCO does this by facilitating expert missions, tailored training sessions and individual consultations on both a national and local scale, to guide the preparation of applications for UNESCO Global Geopark status.

The newly designated UNESCO Global Geoparks are:

Incorporating ‘Slowcation’ Elements Into Your Next Trip

In a busy world where life sometimes feels like a whirlwind, finally having the chance to take a relaxing vacation shouldn’t leave travelers feeling exhausted upon return. After the pandemic, a trend dubbed “revenge travel” had vacationers excessively packing their itineraries and booking more frequent trips in hopes of making up for lost time during quarantine, but ultimately left travelers feeling tired and burnt out.

Revenge travel for the purpose of making up for lost time is slowly on the decline, but old habits die hard, and travelers continue to fill up their schedules without incorporating any downtime for relaxation. To help curb the compulsion of overbooking activities and operating on tight schedules, “slowcations” have been an underrated method of travel in recent years, giving travelers the opportunity to personalize a vacation while offering a much-needed reprieve.

Featured UNESCO World Heritage Site

Namib Sand Sea is the only coastal desert in the world that includes extensive dune fields influenced by fog. Covering an area of over three million hectares and a buffer zone of 899,500 hectares, the site is composed of two dune systems, an ancient semi-consolidated one overlain by a younger active one. The desert dunes are formed by the transportation of materials thousands of kilometres from the hinterland, that are carried by river, ocean current and wind. It features gravel plains, coastal flats, rocky hills, inselbergs within the sand sea, a coastal lagoon and ephemeral rivers, resulting in a landscape of exceptional beauty. Fog is the primary source of water in the site, accounting for a unique environment in which endemic invertebrates, reptiles and mammals adapt to an ever-changing variety of microhabitats and ecological niches.
