Why are transfrontier parks called peace parks?

Transfrontier parks, often referred to as peace parks, are designated areas that span national borders and promote cooperation between neighboring countries in conservation and tourism. The term "peace park" emphasizes the role these parks play in fostering diplomatic relations, regional stability, and collaborative environmental management. By uniting countries around shared Natural Resources and biodiversity, they encourage peaceful coexistence and sustainable development. Additionally, they serve as symbols of reconciliation and unity in regions that may have experienced conflict.
