Emails on WWD and tourism

06/07/2011

Dear Everyone:

Just a short email to say how happy we are to receive the very supportive and enthusiastic messages for our WWD and COP11 theme – your emails and comments have underlined what an important area this is for the Convention and some of the brief remarks made help to underline the very different needs, perspectives and experiences people have depending upon their national and local circumstances. All very helpful in our tasks for WWD as well as the draft Resolution and the booklet to be launched at COP11. We hope all will be of relevance and of assistance to many wetland people.

More information coming as we advance in our planning!

With best wishes, Sandra Hails, Ramsar Secretariat
