The mission of the Ramsar Convention was adopted by the Conference of Parties in 1999 and was later redefined in 2002. The Convention’s mission statement is: “the conservation and wise‐use of all wetlands through local, regional, and national actions and international cooperation, as a contribution toward achieving sustainable development throughout the world” (Matthews 1993; Ramsar Convention Secretariat 2011, 2016).
