Disaster Risk Reduction at UNESCO Global Geoparks and Biosphere Reserves
Irina, Pavlova
UNESCO Global Geoparks and Biosphere Reserves are natural UNESCO designated sites that promote sustainable development and focus on the protection of natural and cultural heritage or the conservation and sustainable use of geological resources and biodiversity. More than 800 of these natural UNESCOdesignated sites may be partly or entirely exposed to natural hazards and extreme weather events which can potentially impact the communities living in or near the sites and their livelihoods. Because of their high cultural and symbolic value, the impact of the loss or damage of a natural UNESCO-designated site can resonate across the world. At the same time, these iconic sites have tremendous potential as platforms to share knowledge on Disaster Risk Reduction. Many UNESCO-designated sites have community and tourismoriented programmes to raise awareness about the source of natural hazards, associated risks, and ways to reduce their impact.
