A recent online meeting between the Management Committee of Leye-Fengshan Global Geopark of China and the Management Committee of NON NUOC CAO BANG UNESCO Global Geopark of Vietnam was held to seek for in-depth discussions on promoting relationship between the two geoparks.

After several times of contact, the Management Committee of CAO BANG UNESCO Global Geopark requested to hold an online video conference to exchange ideas on the direction of future cooperation and discuss related matters with Leye-Fengshan Geopark. In that meeting, the two parks used PPT to demonstrate their basic situation and related experience in construction. The meeting has deepened mutual understanding between both sides, as well as laying a good foundation for signing partnership agreement and building substantial cooperation between the two parks.

The two parks expressed that they were eager to establish further communication and contact, and looked forward to achieving win-win cooperation in the protection of geological heritage, scientific research and popularization, and tourism development.
