2nd of February
each year is World Wetlands Day. It marks the date of the adoption of the
Convention on Wetlands on 2 February 1971, in the Iranian city of Ramsar on the
shores of the Caspian Sea. Each year since 1997, government agencies,
non-governmental organizations, and groups of citizens at all levels of the
community have taken advantage of the opportunity to undertake actions aimed at
raising public awareness of wetland values and benefits in general, and the
Ramsar Convention in particular.
