Management and governance
The Geopark is managed autonomously and independently, by its promoter, the Solidarity Cooperative of the Geopark of Percé. In the specific case of the Geopark, the cooperative, which has the particularity of bringing together more than one category of members, brings together local tourism companies wishing to propose a new activity to their clientele, in addition to including support members who invest in the aim to support tourism and economic development.
These different actors are called "private" or "public". In this last category, we find the Office of Tourism, provincial economic development organizations (Regional County Municipality) and federal (SADC), Bonaventure Island National Park (belonging to the provincial government) and the economic development company of Percé (SDEP).
With a mission to develop a new appeal product for the tourism industry in Percé and throughout the region, the Percé Geopark Cooperative is committed to the deployment of outdoor activities and entertainment by addressing a wide range of customer base. From young families to more adventurous athletes, to geology enthusiasts, the UNESCO Global Geopark in Percé offers a range of activities that leaves no one indifferent.
