Convention on Wetlands SP5 Survey - English

Convention on Wetlands

5^th Strategic Plan Questionnaire

Background

The Strategic Plan is the key document guiding implementation of the Convention on Wetlands. It sets priorities to inform the activities of Contracting Parties, the work program of the Secretariat, and the support provided by other bodies of the Convention such as the Scientific and Technical Review Panel (STRP) and the International Organization Partners (IOPs). The Convention is currently working under the 4^th Strategic Plan which runs until 2024.

The Convention’s Strategic Plan Working Group has the mandate to lead on the preparation of a draft 5^th Strategic Plan for consideration at the next Conference of the Parties in 2025 (COP15). Following guidance from the Conference of the Parties, the Strategic Plan Working Group is committed to a process that is inclusive, transparent and accessible to enable full and effective participation of all interested Contracting Parties, partners and stakeholders.

This questionnaire is an initial step in the consultation and engagement process in order to inform the content and direction of the 5^th Strategic Plan.

More information on the development of the 5^th Strategic Plan is available at: https://www.ramsar.org/fifth-strategic-plan
