Our vision

Vision for 2050

By 2050, Bosques de Pandora Geopark consolidates itself as a strategic territory for conservation, sustainable use and ecological regeneration, linked to a territorial development model based on nature tourism, adventure and environmental education, under principles of sustainability, resilience and community governance.

The territory guarantees the effective protection of its ecosystems, karst systems, water sources and natural landscapes as priority environmental assets within territorial planning.

The local community actively participates in the decision-making, operation and benefits of the tourism model, ensuring the fair distribution of benefits and the strengthening of the social fabric.

The territory’s performance is assessed through verifiable environmental, social and economic indicators.
