dc.description.abstractAfter four years of the proclamation of the Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development by the United Nations, it is interesting to understand the effective contribution of the UNESCO Global Geoparks (UGGps) for this major worldwide compromise. It is even more pertinent to understand how the transnational UGGps can contribute in their management plan for the implementation of the 17 SDGs of the Agenda 2030. As referred by UNESCO, the transnational UGGps “naturally cross-national borders, connecting the peoples of different countries and encouraging intimate regional, cross-border cooperation. It is through this strong cross-border cooperation that transnational UGGps strengthen the relationship between countries and contribute to peacebuilding efforts”. In this context, through a research study about the contribution of the European UGGps for the Agenda 2030, especial attention was given to the role of a transnational UGGp as a case study of this research. For this purpose, it was selected the Marble Arch Caves UGGp. In this framework, the case study was based in the analysis of the progress reports of this UGGp (2015-2016) and to make a correlation between the developed activities and the 17 SDGs. The main challenge was to compare the results obtained with that analysis with the interviews done personally to some of the elements of this UGGp team and to some inhabitants living in this territory. Through this process, it was intended to obtain more detailed information about the awareness regarding the Agenda 2030 and which SDGs were more relevant for them in a daily basis. The analysis of the progress reports showed that the SDG16 only appears in the seventh position out of ten most relevant SDGs. However, in the interviews carried on in the territory, the SDG 16 appears in the first position, since it is considered very important to maintain peace, cooperation and sustainable development among the local communities. The main explanation for this reality is the fact of the discussion around Brexit and the uncertainty of the future for the local communities. In this sense, this work demonstrates that the Marble Arch Caves UGGp can be considered a vital territorial tool for peace and sustainable development.pt_PT
