Abstract Geodiversity and geoheritage research has gained increasing prominence in natural social sciences, reflecting their critical role nature conservation, regional development, geosystem services, environmental change. Given the inter- transdisciplinary character of geodiversity studies, a notable shift from basic mapping, description assessment particular geosites to more advanced sophisticated methods approaches is evident during last years. Emerging themes include quantitative analyses geodiversity-biodiversity relationships, dynamics geomorphosites, innovative degradation risk methodologies tailored varying conditions, geotourism assessments specific areas, application concepts policy management. Additionally, integrating GIS IT tools enhanced evaluation elements landscape structures ecosystem services. This article provides brief reflection on new directions serves as an introduction Special Issue Moravian Geographical Reports ‘Geodiversity Geoheritage: Bridging Science, Conservation, Development’. Generally, it can be stated that papers included this special issue reflect necessity interdisciplinary address contemporary challenges conservation
