The Ramsar Convention is an international, intergovernmental treaty for the conservation of wetlands. And it encompasses key wetlands including even manmade ones such as rice paddies that have biological and zoological significance there are 33 such wetlands in Japan, 1,822 worldwide.
The original text was signed in Ramsar, Iran, in 1971 and entered into international law in 1975; it placed emphasis not only on the establishment of protected wetland sites, but also on the“wise use”(a concept originally equated with“sustainable use”) of such sites.
While international conventions often coalesce around action led by major states, the Ramsar Convention arose from intense dialogue among three NGOs, namely the International Union for Conservation of Nature, the International Waterfowl Wetlands Research Bureau(now, Wetlands International) and the International Council for Bird Preservation(now BirdLife International).
The Ramsar Convention provides that the Contracting Parties recognize the interdependence of Man and his environment, desire to stem the progressive encroachment on and loss of wetlands now and in the future, and ensure the conservation of wetlands and their flora and fauna by combining far-sighted national policies with co-ordinated international action.
Indeed, the increased societal demands on wetlands- as a source of drinking water, food, transportation, hydropower, etc.- means that even if the parties to the Ramsar Convention wanted to limit its focus exclusively to waterfowl habitats, there would be no feasible way to ignore the communities surrounding these ecosystems and their basic needs.
