30 Partners. Back in 2007, LG had agreed M-o-U s with all the Partners on this list. No financial support was involved. UNESCO are very keen to see positive support from Partners like these, including the Scottish Government. But the original idea was for geoparks to be community lead, not top down. So who holds the purse strings?
