World Wetlands Day Webinar Report
The international community celebrated World Wetlands Day (WWD) on 2 February 2023 to raise awareness about wetlands in order to reverse their rapid loss and encourage actions to conserve and restore them. This year’s theme was “It’s time for wetlands restoration, “ highlighting the urgent need to prioritize wetland restoration.
Restoration requires a collaborative effort, strengthening exchanges and cooperation between relevant players worldwide. Harnessing on collaboration and exchange, the G20 Global Land Initiative Coordination Office in partnership with the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands, UN Decade for Ecosystem Restoration, UN Environment Programme, and other partners hosted a global webinar “It’s time for wetlands restoration” to celebrate WWD 2023.
