... Supplementary material: An extended description of sites of geological relevance (Appendix 1); reasons why residents consider Portland home (Appendix 2) and why nature should be protected (Appendix 3); sites that are meaningful for locals (Appendix 4); examples of geoscience education approaches that would leverage locals' place attachment (Appendix 5); and DEMs disaggregating the different layers of information presented in Figure 2 (Appendix 6) are available at https://doi.org/10. 6084/m9.figshare.c.6852631 Geoheritage refers to geological features with significant scientific, educational, cultural, touristic and/ or aesthetic value that are worth protecting for future generations (Carcavilla-Urquí et al. 2007; National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine (NASEM) 2021). Geoconservation embraces initiatives that engage locals in protecting the memory of the Earth, celebrating inextricable connections among Earth system components (Mc Keever and Zouros 2005;Martini 2009; United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) 2016). ...
... During the English invasion in 1655, the Spaniards' enslaved Africans were freed and found refuge in the most inaccessible landscape of the island (Sinclair-Maragh and Simpson 2021). The Maroons are self-reliant descendants of primarily Coromantee people from the Gold Coast of Africa, who escaped slavery and established free communities in Jamaica (Brown 2021); the ethnic category of Coromantee refers to an amalgam of multilingual captives with similar cultural backgrounds (Brown 2021). Portland's mountainous interior served as a refuge for Windward Maroons during their resistance to colonialism (JNHT and JCDT 2015). ...

Sites of geological relevance in East Portland are representative of the geological history of Jamaica, and are important to elucidate the Caribbean geotectonic evolution. Geological significance overlaps with natural and cultural heritage of international relevance, especially related to Maroon communities. In this region, Jamaican's highest peak rises steeply from sea level; the ocean is the focus of important conservation efforts. This study employs an Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis to explore place attachment as experienced by East Portland residents. We engaged in conversations with sixteen diverse community members through interviews and a focus group. Two dimensions of place attachment emerged: place identity and place dependence, showing that East Portland is home to people who depend on, identify with, and are committed to protecting nature. We present an approach to mapping place attachment, which resulted in an important tool of analysis when overlapping with layers of information like geoheritage. The geological significance, natural and cultural richness, and connections the locals have with nature make East Portland an ideal prototype for geoconservation. This study also reveals that attachment to a place does not necessarily correspond to attachment to geoscientific significance; for common meanings to emerge, geoscientists and locals must collaborate.

... During the early twenty-first century, using previous studies as a basis, a number of doctoral theses dedicated to geoconservation were completed (e.g., Bruschi 2007;Carcavilla et al. 2007;Fuertes-Gutierrez 2013;Pérez Domingo 2013;Ortiz and de Landaluce, 2016;Lebrón, 2016;Jiménez 2017;Rosillo 2019) as well as various publications synthesizing advances within geological heritage policy and practice over this period (e.g., Durán et al. 2005;Carcavilla et al. 2009Díaz Martínez et al., 2010;Díaz-Martínez et al. 2014;Fernández-Martínez, 2014;Luengo et al. 2021). These developments will be discussed further below. ...
... Subsequently, various Spanish geoscientists proposed inventory methodologies such as those of Cendrero (1996ab), Elízaga and Palacio (1996), Morales (1996), Palacio (2000), Morales et al. (2002), Romero (2004), Villalobos et al. (2004), García-Cortés and Fernández-Gianotti (2005), Bruschi (2007), and Carcavilla et al. (2007). Durán et al. (2005) and Carcavilla et al. (2009) published a summary of the main research projects carried out on this topic. ...
... In Spain, there are three categories of protected areas , which establish a legal regime that ensures compatibility between their conservation and a series of permitted land uses: (1) established by national and regional legislation, (2) established by European directives (Natura 2000 Network), and (3) established by international instruments (Ramsar wetlands, UGGps, BRs, etc.). Regarding the first category, since the competency for regulation of nature conservation has been transferred to the Spanish regions, there is a complex network of protected areas under more than 50 different types of protection (Carcavilla et al. 2007). Thus, although many geosites are included in protected areas, there remain many that are not protected at all. ...
A synthesis of the current state of geoconservation in Spain and an identification of the key associations and entities that develop is presented. We also provide an historical review with references for the main publications on the subject to date. In addition, new and updated information on the current status of geoconservation in the country is also presented including a report on the main geoconservation actions in Spain, from the development of inventories at various spatial scales and the geological heritage and geodiversity management carried out for various types of protected areas, to the legislation derived from environmental, cultural and land planning approaches. We also analyse the evolution of the activities of the Commission on Geological Heritage of the Spanish Geological Society (CPG-SGE) as a case study that can provide a somewhat biased but significant view of the development of geoconservation in Spain. Novel lines of work that are being carried out are also additionally presented, such as the monitoring of geosites or recording the traditional knowledge and uses of geodiversity in Spain. As we present here, Spain has made very significant advances in the field of geoconservation over the last fifty years and hence could be considered as a reference for the development and implementation of the concept at a national scale. However, there is still a long way to go as we continue to develop the discipline in the years to come.
... El geoturismo se basa en la utilización del patrimonio geológico como recurso por su interés científico, naturalístico, cultural, recreativo y didáctico. La existencia de elementos geológicos patrimoniales en una región puede constituir un recurso que favorezca el desarrollo social, económico e incluso cultural de la sociedad (Carcavilla Urqui et al., 2007). Por ello, el geoturismo busca atraer público y generar un beneficio socioeconómico, basándose en la creación de una infraestructura turística de apoyo a algunos elementos del patrimonio geológico presentes en una región. ...
This research focuses on the characterization of geosites in the Santa María-Nibujón sector, Baracoa. The primary objective is to describe and characterize the points of geological interest in the region, considering aspects such as geological complexity and the presence of endemic flora and fauna. The applied methodology evaluates the potential for the creation of geotourism trails. As a result, two Geotourism Trails were determined, El Cocal and Nibujón – La Jaragua, designed to integrate natural potential and contribute to local economic development. Three sites of geological interest of national importance are identified: El Salto La Jaragua, La Bahía de Taco and the Cross Stratification in Baracoa-Recreo. In addition, four of the 12 geosites evaluated are classified as protected natural landscapes due to their visual appeal, originality and diversity of life. As a concrete measure, specific actions are proposed for the conservation and preservation of these geosites, ensuring their sustainability and contributing to sustainable geotourism development in the region. This comprehensive scientific approach supports the importance of proper management of geological resources for their effective integration into the local socioeconomic context.

... Geoconservação é, ainda, definida como sendo o conjunto de técnicas e medidas que visam assegurar a conservação (inclui a reabilitação) do patrimônio geológico e da geodiversidade, baseada na análise de seus valores intrínsecos, vulnerabilidade e do risco de degradação (CARCAVILLA et al., 2007). ...
Resumo: A biodiversidade do planeta Terra tem uma estreita relação com os elementos abióticos tais como as rochas, os minerais, os solos e a água, entre outros, ou seja, a geodiversidade. Neste contexto, compreender esta relação em contato com ambientes naturais protegidos é uma importante estratégia de preservação ambiental. Sendo assim, o objetivo deste trabalho foi compreender os aspectos geoambientais do Parque Estadual Pedra da Boca/PB por meio de trilhas interpretativas. A pesquisa se configura como exploratória, com abordagem qualiquantitativa, que utilizou a pesquisa bibliográfica, atividade de campo e questionários aplicados pelo aplicativo Google Forms para a coleta de dados. Os resultados da pesquisa evidenciaram a importância da realização de trilhas interpretativas, conduzidas por guias locais para o aprofundamento dos conhecimentos referentes a fauna, flora, geologia, geomorfologia e preservação ambiental do Parque.

À medida que compartilhamos essas contribuições estimulantes, queremos
expressar nossa gratidão a todos os autores, revisores, organizadores e participantes que tornaram o CONPECT 2023 uma realidade. Que esta coletânea
de artigos continue a iluminar o caminho para práticas mais eficazes, inovadoras e sustentáveis no ensino, na conservação e no turismo.
... Preservation and fortification of geoheritage sites were initiated by UNESCO in 1972 with a multilayered characterization of natural heritage. Recent studies show that geology and related branches including cultural diversities need prudent evaluation and management for future generations (Brilha 2002;Zouros 2004Zouros , 2005Zouros , 2007Stace and Larwood 2006;Brocx and Semeniuk 2007;Carcavilla et al. 2007;Panizza 2009;Zouros and McKeever 2009;Bhosale et al. 2021;Chauhan et al. 2021). Apart from this, several fossils and archaeological tools such as forts, stones, brick patterns, rocks cut pieces, tools of stone, buried pottery material, literature, and art also provide information on the cultural diversity of the historic time and sequential changes through the geological period (Reynard and Giusti, 2018;Chauhan et al. 2021). ...
A number of studies have shown that the conservation and protection of significant geoheritage sites are crucial for scientific expeditions, education, and cultural viewpoint. Such geosites include places of geological, geomorphological, structural, palaeontological, stratigraphic, mineralogical, and/or archaeological significance. The values for bio-tourism, geotourism, and archaeo-tourism with distinguished geological features can be considered geoheritage in particular. The rocks of the Kumaun Himalaya (North India) ranging from the Proterozoic to Cenozoic periods are ideally preserved in various geographic domains and comprise a large number of geosites. These rock units have enormous potential to implement the concept of geopark and geotourism in the Kumaun Himalaya. In this paper, we have highlighted significant geosites of Kumaun Himalaya by describing their geology and related aspects along with their educational value. The conservation of proposed geosites is especially crucial to preserve them for posterity. Government agencies and educational institutes can promote the existing and potential sites of geotourism which will ultimately enhance the economy of the region and certainly help to develop and conserve important geosites in the rugged Himalaya terrain. Therefore, it is proposed that the geosites of Kumaun Himalaya, preserved in different geographical domains, should be conserved as national geoparks in India.
... org/ susta inabl edeve lopme nt). This led geology to adopt a perspective focused on the relationship between the human being and the environment, especially in the sustainable use of natural resources, avoiding and preventing natural hazards and minimising the degradation of nature (Carcavilla et al. 2007;Reynard et al. 2009;Panizza 2009;Pellitero et al. 2011;Cameron 2022;Pereira Balaguer et al. 2022). ...
Geodiversity and biodiversity have been assessed in an area of the province of Jaén (Southern Spain), the first one from the consideration of partial indices based on lithology, geomorphology, pedology, hydrology, palaeontology, mineralogy and geosites; biodiversity is also regarded from previous data, considering a biodiversity index and endangered species index. This area shows the contact between the Guadalquivir Basin and the Betic External Zones. In addition, several natural protected areas have been defined, among which the Cazorla, Segura and Las Villas Natural Park (where mainly Prebetic materials outcrop) and the Sierra Mágina Natural Park (made up of Subbetic materials) stand out. The high and very high values of geodiversity have been located in an area where mainly Subbetic materials outcrop, including the Sierra Mágina Natural Park, and which coincides to a large extent with the front of the Betic External Zones and its contact with the Guadalquivir Basin. However, the Cazorla, Segura and Las Villas Natural Park is outside this area of high or very high geodiversity. Both natural parks fit well in areas where biodiversity and endangered species are important. These differences between the geodiversity values and the boundaries of these natural areas allow suggesting that, for delimitation of any natural protected area, its boundaries should be defined based on knowledge of the geodiversity and biodiversity of the region where the natural area is located.
Parte de los desafíos que el Chile del siglo XXI enfrenta en la actualidad tienen que ver con un reencuentro social, de los unos con los otros, de un nosotros con un todo, y ese todo desde una relación con el entorno y entendimiento con nuestras raíces y tradiciones. No es casual que la presidencia del órgano constituyente mandatado para proponerle al país un nuevo texto constitucional, haya sido ocupada por una mujer indígena en su primer año. Ni tampoco, es casual que, uno de los elementos que genera amplio consenso para la propuesta de Carta Fundamental, sea la, declaración de un Estado plurinacional e intercultural.
La fuerza de estas ideas se da, entre otras posibles cosas, por una necesidad de justicia social, de equidad territorial y de oportunidades de reconocimiento de los sectores y demandas históricamentes postergadas.
Y este sentir, lo saben los del centro, sur y por supuesto, las comunidades de nuestro norte. Es allí, en ese anhelo, donde los actores públicos y privados entramos y estamos llamados a jugar un rol.
Desde el Gobierno Regional hemos impulsado una mayor disposición al diálogo y al fomento de la promoción patrimonial e identitaria de las distintas zonas y comunidades de nuestra región; a través de los recursos destinados en el Fondo Nacional de Desarrollo Regional, principalmente en su línea Cultura y
desde el interés Regional, parte además de un compromiso que generamos con las comunidades en este camino hacia una nueva forma de llevar adelante el servicio público.
Esto cobra especial sentido cuando vemos iniciativas como el Programa de capacitación en conservación patrimonial pueblos de Alto El Loa, enfocado en su primera etapa en relevar la identidad y patrimonio de las comunidades de Chiu Chiu, Caspana, Turi/ Ayquina y Lasana; capacitando a sus comunidades en
la preservación y promoción de la riqueza patrimonial de sus territorios. Y del mismo modo, a través del
presente libro “Alto el Loa, territorio de conservación”, que con sus imágenes y relato busca expandir las
fuentes de conocimiento e información sobre los territorios en los que se acunan gran parte de las primeras
naciones andinas de nuestra región.
Porque soy un convencido que no se ama lo que no se conoce, y que todos los días debemos generar las
acciones necesarias para dar a conocer nuestra región, es que aplaudo y valoro esta iniciativa. Desde el
Gobierno Regional, que me toca encabezar, existe un pleno compromiso con la identidad cultural y con
el reencuentro social, necesario para iniciar una nueva etapa como región y país. Sepan que nuestras
energías están en avanzar hacia una región moderna y equitativa mediante un camino de entendimiento,
justicia social y dignidad para todas y todos. Una región próspera es una región que protege y entrega
herramientas. Este libro es un fiel reflejo de ese anhelo.
This contribution analyzes the current situation and the management status of the movable paleontological heritage of the National University of Tucumán (UNT-Universidad Nacional de Tucumán), Argentina. The main objective of this work is to present the Lillo Invertebrate Paleontology Collection (acronym PIL—Paleontología Invertebrados Lillo), which includes nearly 5000 specimens from different taxonomic groups and geological periods, and to evaluate the current status by posting some ideas towards a better management. In addition, ideas to improve their conservation and use conditions for scientific and educational purposes are proposed. The PIL collection holds a notable scientific interest due to the important samples that include holotype and paratype material that deserves appreciation by means of interest, investments (financial and human resources), management, and conservation. An almost permanent crisis status, and the precarious situation of the collection, directly affected this unique heritage of the university as becoming threatened and vulnerable by means of its actual reality. Shortcomings and failings observed in the collection are essentially the same as other natural history collections and basically originate from a lack of appreciation by competent authorities and the society, both reflected as a low investment on human and material resources.
