EarthDay: A video on the importance of wetlands

A video released by Mediterranean Biodiversity Protection Community for the occasion of the 2021 Earth Day explains the importance of wetlands and the biggest threats they face today and what comprehensive solutions would be needed to protect and restore them. 

Bringing together key public and private players, this Mediterranean community of nature conservation actors is mainstreaming management efforts for environmental sustainability and increasing the impact of biodiversity protection projects towards common identified strategic targets. The PANACeA project (its predecessor initiative implemented from 2016 to 2019) has now become the Mediterranean Biodiversity Protection Community project (2019-2022) to move forward networking and management efforts inside and outside protected areas (PAs), and so enhance nature conservation and management in the region.
