On February 2nd every year, the signatories to the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands of International Importance commemorate the objectives of the Convention through a theme.

Fiji became a signatory to the Ramsar Convention in 2006.

For 2021 the theme is Wetlands and Water

What can you do to help?

Share and raise awareness on the importance of Fiji’s wetlands as a source of clean drinking water, habitat for our special species and migratory shore birds and for our well-being as a family, community and nation.

Value our wetlands. Maintain our wetlands. Restore our wetlands.

EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS FROM THE RAMSAR SECRETARIAT

You can find more here to get power point presentations, videos, posters to help you raise awareness about wetlands.

Feel free to also post a note about what you are doing to look after a wetland or a wetland dependent species near you.

Join us on our NatureFiji-MareqetiViti Learn from the Scientists series of events to learn more about our wetland habitats and the species that reside in them.
