Resumen
The out come of a lengthy process of consultations and preparatory work culminated,in 1977, in the lntergovernmental Conference of Experts for preparing an International Ceological Correlation Programme. This Programme started in 1973,and by 1995, nearly 400 Projects for time-limited periods of 4 years or more, had been approved. All these Projects are international both in scope and in research teams. Most of them have achieved important goals in studying diverse geologic tapies in relationship with their distribution in time and space. The Spanish participation through research teams of institutions, mainly University Department sand CSIC Centers, started in 1976 and has been very active. It represents between 16 and 37 per cent of the Projects active every year until now. The evaluation of the development of this Programme both from international and Spanish perspective, is clearly positive. It has contributed efficiently to the growth of geological sciences and has also favoured the international contacts.
