The Regional Wetlands Action Plan (RWAP) for the Pacific Islands (SPREP, 1999) was endorsed by the 26 member countries and territories of SPREP. The Action Plan contained 28 priority actions in the areas of management, capacity building, research and monitoring for wetland ecosystems. In 2002, a formal memorandum of cooperation was signed between the Secretariat of the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands and SPREP to promote the importance of wetland conservation in the Pacific Islands region. This partnership has continued with the third memorandum of cooperation recently signed between the two organizations in 2009.Available onlineCall Number: 333.918 SEC [EL]ISBN/ISSN: 978-982-04-0415-1,978-982-04-0416-8Physical Description: 18 p.
