Plenary conference
"Geological Heritage and UNESCO Global Geoparks: Memory of the Earth, future for the people"
Dr. Asier Hilario presents a broad reflection about geoconservation
based on his personal view and international experience. He talks about
the great opportunity of the renewed IUGS Global Geosites programme,
and explains the importance of UNESCO Global Geoparks as key actors

emotional communication, a real social engagement and a good capacity
for empathy will also be critically analyzed as key topics for the future of
geoconservation.

El objetivo es dar a conocer algunos de los lugares con relieves más raros y formaciones geológicas más valiosas que tenemos en la provincia. Una pequeña muestra de nuestro patrimonio geológico . Grupo de la excursión geológica mañanera del 7 de agosto de 2019 ( enlace aquí ). A raíz de organizar algunos geolodías de Guadalajara (aquí enlace al de 2025), ha ido surgiendo interés en otros pueblos para hacer algo parecido. Como la mayoría son pueblos en riesgo de despoblación que ya sólo recuperan su vitalidad en las vacaciones de verano, estaba claro cuándo había que hacer la actividad. Y como en esas fechas hace un calor que no perdona, estaba claro que había que hacerlo con la fresca. Y ya sabemos cuando son las mínimas: al amanecer. Los Frailes de El Sotillo: uno de los lugares geológicos de interés que...
The European Association for the Conservation of Geoheritage (ProGEO) has published a book on " Geoheritage in Europe and its conservation ". The book includes contributions from a total of 37 countries, including for each of them a review of the most important geosites, a history of geoconservation in that country, and a summary of policies, strategies and legal framework. The book can be bought through the web page of ProGEO here and a flyer can be downloaded here . You can check the latest ProGEO newsletter here , with more information on the book and its contents.
