Research

Research is a key pillar of Psiloritis Geopark since, thanks to the various studies carried out in the area, knowledge about the natural and cultural heritage of the Geopark can be documented and enriched!

Indeed, a UNESCO Global Geopark is not a museum but an active laboratory where people can engage in science, whether they are scientists of the highest academic level or visitors with curiosity and a desire to discover nature and culture. Like all UNESCO Global Geoparks, Psiloritis Geopark cooperates with academic institutions and research bodies by participating and encouraging active scientific research in the Earth Sciences, and in other disciplines that include any kind of axis that is of interest for the area (ecology, culture, sustainability, local economy), advancing our knowledge about our territory.
