World Wetlands Day Events in Puerto Vallarta

 World Wetlans Day Poster

Saturday February 2nd, from 10 am to 1 pm, there will be workshops and presentations in the general area of the Presedencia. There will also be workshops for children in the bandstand and a marathon in Boca. This sounds likely a really ineteresting, informative event for both children and adults alike to learn something new about this beautiful planet we live on!

2 February each year is World Wetlands Day. It marks the date of the signing of the Convention on Wetlands on 2 February 1971, in the Iranian city of Ramsar on the shores of the Caspian Sea. WWD was celebrated for the first time in 1997 and made an encouraging beginning. Each year, government agencies, non-governmental organizations, and groups of citizens at all levels of the community have taken advantage of the opportunity to undertake actions aimed at raising public awareness of wetland values and benefits in general and the Ramsar Convention in particular.
