02/02/2011

Greetings CEPA People:

It’s finally here, February 2nd, WWD and our 40th!

Please have a look at our home page www.ramsar.org to see the ‘goodies’ we have put together, with our Ramsar messages to go out during the year, key messages from a number of our international partners, video clips about Ramsar from a design school in Geneva and more.

Also, I’ve attached a Media Advisory that went out yesterday. Please feel free to use this in your own country.

With best wishes, Sandra Hails, Ramsar Secretariat
