| local.description | The Sibugay Coastal Wetlands (SCW) will be renamed Sibugay Wetland Nature Reserve (SWNR) as the Philippines anticipates its inclusion in the Ramsar List of Wetlands of International Importance when contracting parties meet in Gland, Switzerland in December this year. Georgina Fernandez, Conservation and Development chief of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) in Zamboanga Sibugay, says the Ramsar Site designation will open opportunities for international cooperation on research. It will help raise funding for conservation and protection of the site. Provincial Environment and Natural Resources Officer (Penro) Edgardo Montojo says it is important to advocate for the wise use the wetlands’ resources in order that it will be enjoyed by future generations. Here, the Ramsar list will play a unique role. | en |
