The Khorat Geopark local curricula will be used in teaching in the Khorat Geopark network partnership schools from primary to upper secondary school levels. The information will be incorporated into basic courses as well as used in additional courses to provide knowledge to students about the uniqueness and remarkability of the local natural resources and to raise awareness of the value of local resources, geological, natural, ecological, and cultural.  This knowledge can be applied to conservation and sustainable development of the local regions in accordance with the approach of UNESCO.
