| Although the Ramsar Convention has long advocated the wise use of wetlands, this concept has yet to take root in Japan. Thus, WIJ has embarked on a survey of wetland wise use practices throughout Japan through field studies and interviews. This project was made possible through funding from the Environmental Restoration and Conservation Agency’s Japan Fund for Global Environment WIJ is currently conducting more surveys, which will be compiled in a DVD for release in 2008. |
