Cover image for "Global Wetland Outlook 2025" report by Ramsar. The image shows a silhouette of a person in a conical hat carrying rice seedlings on a pole across their shoulders, walking through a misty wetland landscape. The person's reflection is visible in turquoise water below. The Ramsar logo appears at bottom left, with subtitle "Valuing, conserving, restoring and financing wetlands" beneath. The atmospheric image captures traditional agricultural practices in wetland environments, with a soft, ethereal quality created by morning mist and diffused light.

#IUCNcongress: Today, the Secretary General had a bilateral meeting with Ms Yoko Watanabe, Director of Environment at the Asian Development Bank. To conserve and restore at least 550 million hectares of wetlands, resource mobilization must scale up dramatically. #GWO2025
Once degraded, wetlands are expensive and difficult to restore. The #GWO2025 calls for an immediate shift: from reactive responses to proactive policies and from underinvestment to the mobilisation of substantial financial resources.

Africa is marking 40 years of environmental progress at the 20th Ordinary Session of the African Ministerial Conference on the Environment, #AMCEN20.
As we look to the future, wetlands must be at the heart of our environmental agenda for climate resilience and water security. #GWO2025
The #GWO2025 launched today. The report to which BirdLife contributed, shows wetlands are worth up to $39 trillion yearly in ecosystem services, yet they’re vanishing fast. As we head into #WetlandsCOP15, it's a powerful reminder of why we must act now to restore and protect them.
