Ang Bohol nahimong usa sa 18 ka posibleng bag-ong Global Geoparks nga nominado niadtong 2022 tungod sa iyang geological significance ug scientific nga importansya.

Uban sa laing 17 ka bag-ong geoparks, ang isla sa Bohol moapil na sa Global Geoparks Network nga nagdala sa kinatibuk-ang ihap sa mga miyembro ngadto sa 195 karong tuiga.

Naghatag ang Network og plataporma alang sa internasyonal nga kooperasyon, nga nagtugot sa mga global geopark ug mga nangandoy nga geopark sa pagpaambit sa labing maayo nga mga gawi ug pagpalambo sa UNESCO Global Geopark brand.

Ang kagamhanang probinsyal sa Bohol, isip kinauyokan nga institusyon sa pagdumala sa Bohol Island Geopark, nagpaabot sa ilang kinahiladman nga pasalamat ngadto sa mga miyembro sa technical working group, technical advisers, partners gikan sa academe, eskwelahan, non-government organizations, national government agencies, local government units, mga ahensya sa tour, lokal nga negosyo, mga boluntaryo, ug mga tigsuporta nga naghimo niini nga damgo nga usa ka kamatuoran.
