Difference between biosphere reserves national parks and sanctuaries?

The main difference between biosphere reserves, national parks, and sanctuaries is first of all a matter of terminology and secondly a matter of who is responsible for managing the site. "Sanctuaries" may be privately- or publicly-held, and the term conveys limited use and access for people. "National Parks" are managed by federal governments; each country has its own regulations governing how national parks are to be managed and used. "Biosphere reserve" is a term applied by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) to recognize a site's ecosystem completeness; UNESCO does not manage park sites of its own accord.
