PLEASE NOTE - the date of this webinar has been re-scheduled from 26 February to 26 March 2025.

The geodiversity of our surroundings is as elemental as the sea and the sky to our sense of place and our shared heritage. It can cause our jaws to drop in awe and surprise and at the same time ground us in the tangible reality of why things happen where they do. Geodiversity and Geoheritage can be wondrous subjects to interpret in any setting, but they also pose some particular challenges for even the most seasoned interpreter. A new addition to the best practice guidelines published by AHI explores the nature of these challenges along with some potential solutions, all with the aim of helping you make the most of geoheritage in your projects.

 

Sam Scriven is the Principal Officer World Heritage at the Jurassic Coast Trust.
