The List of Wetlands of International Importance

22 August 2012
The Ramsar List was established in response to Article 2.1 of the Convention on Wetlands (Ramsar, Iran,
1971), which reads:

Each Contracting Party shall designate suitable wetlands within its territory for inclusion in a
List of Wetlands of International Importance, hereinafter referred to as the List which is
maintained by the bureau [secretariat of the Convention] established under Article 8.
Wetlands included in the List acquire a new status at the national level and are recognized by the
international community as being of significant value not only for the country, or the countries, in which
they are located, but for humanity as a whole.
The Convention establishes that wetlands should be selected for the List on account of their international
significance in terms of ecology, botany, zoology, limnology or hydrology. Over the years, the Conference
of the Contracting Parties has adopted more specific criteria interpreting the Convention text, as well as an
Information Sheet on Ramsar Wetlands and a Classification system of wetland type.
All issues pertaining to the Ramsar List were encapsulated in Resolution VII.11 adopted by the Conference
of the Parties in May 1999 and entitled Strategic Framework and guidelines for the future development
of the List of Wetlands of International Importance .1
Everything in the Strategic Framework is founded upon this Vision for the Ramsar List:

To develop and maintain an international network of wetlands which are important for the
conservation of global biological diversity and for sustaining human life through the
ecological and hydrological functions they perform.
Full data submitted by the Parties for each of their Ramsar Sites are entered in the Ramsar Sites Database,
which is maintained by Wetlands International under contract with the Convention. The basic Ramsar List is
also available, with one-paragraph descriptions of each site, as the Annotated Ramsar List in hard copy
form and on the Conventions Web site (www.ramsar.org/anno-list)).
Abbreviations:
MR: Sites included in the Montreux Record, a record of Ramsar Sites where changes in ecological
character have occurred, are occurring or are likely to occur maintained by the Secretariat in consultation
with the Contracting Party concerned (Recommendation 4.8). www.ramsar.org/montreux-record
TRS: Transboundary Ramsar Site, where an ecologically coherent wetland extends across national
borders and the Ramsar site authorities on both or all sides of the border have formally agreed to collaborate
in its management, and have notified the Secretariat of this intent (Ramsar Manual). www.ramsar.org/trs.

The Strategic Framework is available in print form as No. 17 in the Ramsar Handbooks series on the Ramsar Web
site at www.ramsar.org/pdf/lib/hbk4-17.pdf

La Liste des zones humides dimportance internationale

La Liste de Ramsar a t tablie conformment larticle 2.1 de la Convention sur les zones humides
(Ramsar, Iran, 1971) qui stipule:

Chaque Partie contractante devra dsigner les zones humides appropries de son territoire
inclure dans la Liste des zones humides dimportance internationale, appele ci-aprs, la
Liste, et qui est tenue par le Bureau institu en vertu de larticle 8.
Les zones humides qui sont inscrites sur la Liste acquirent un nouveau statut au niveau national et, aux
yeux de la communaut internationale, prennent une importance non seulement pour le pays ou les pays o
elles se trouvent mais aussi pour toute lhumanit.
La Convention prcise: Le choix des zones humides inscrire sur la Liste devrait tre fond sur leur
importance internationale au point de vue cologique, botanique, zoologique, limnologique ou
hydrologique . Au fil des annes, la Confrence des Parties contractantes a adopt des critres plus
spcifiques pour interprter le texte de la Convention, de mme quune Fiche descriptive des zones humides Ramsar
et un Systme de classification des types de zones humides.
La Rsolution VII.7, adopte par la Confrence des Parties en mai 1999, et intitule Cadre stratgique et

lignes directrices pour orienter lvolution de la Liste des zones humides dimportance
internationale2 contient tout ce qui concerne la Liste de Ramsar.
Le Cadre stratgique repose intgralement sur cette Vision pour la Liste de Ramsar:

laborer et maintenir un rseau international de zones humides importantes, en raison des

fonctions cologiques et hydrologiques quelles remplissent, pour la conservation de la
diversit biologique mondiale et la prennit de la vie humaine.
Toutes les donnes fournies par les Parties sur chaque site Ramsar sont consignes dans la Banque de
donnes Ramsar tenue par Wetlands International sous contrat de la Convention.

La Lista de Humedales de Importancia Internacional

La Lista de Ramsar se estableci con arreglo al prrafo 1 del artculo 2 de la Convencin sobre los
Humedales (Ramsar, Irn, 1971), que dice lo siguiente:

Cada Parte Contratante designar humedales idneos de su territorio para ser incluidos en la
Lista de Humedales de Importancia Internacional, en adelante llamada la Lista, que
mantiene la Oficina [secretara de la Convencin] establecida en virtud del Artculo 8.
Los humedales incluidos en la Lista pasan a formar parte de una nueva categora en el plano nacional y la
comunidad internacional reconoce que tienen un valor significativo no slo para el o los pases donde se
encuentran, sino tambin para la toda la humanidad.
La Convencin estipula que la seleccin de los humedales que se incluyan en la Lista deber basarse en su
importancia internacional en trminos ecolgicos, botnicos, zoolgicos, limnolgicos o hidrolgicos. Con
los aos la Conferencia de las Partes Contratantes ha adoptado criterios ms precisos para interpretar el texto
de la Convencin, as como una Ficha Informativa de los Humedales de Ramsar y un Sistema de Clasificacin de tipos
de humedales.
Todos las cuestiones relacionadas con la Lista de Ramsar se encapsularon en la Resolucin VII.11 adoptada
por la Conferencia de las Partes en mayo de 1999, titulada Marco estratgico y lineamientos para el
desarrollo de la Lista de Humedales de Importancia Internacional .3
El contenido ntegro del Marco Estratgico descansa en la siguiente Visin para la Lista de Ramsar:

Crear y mantener una red internacional de humedales que revistan importancia para la
diversidad biolgica mundial y para el sustento de la vida humana debido a las funciones
ecolgicas e hidrolgicas que desempean.
Todos los datos facilitados por las Partes respecto de cada uno de sus Sitios Ramsar se introducen en la Base
de Datos sobre los Sitios Ramsar, administrada por Wetlands International en virtud de un contrato con la
Convencin.
Abreviaciones:
MR: sitios incluidos en el Registro de Montreux, un Registro de los Sitios Ramsar en los que se hubieran
producido, se estuvieran produciendo o pudieran producirse modificaciones en las condiciones ecolgicas
que lleva la Secretara en consulta con cada una de las Partes Contratantes interesadas (Recomendacin 4.8).
www.ramsar.org/registro-montreux
TRS: Sitios Ramsar transfronterizos: un humedal ecolgicamente cohesivo se extiende a travs de
fronteras nacionales y las autoridades del sitio Ramsar de ambos o todos los lados de la frontera han
acordado oficialmente colaborar en su manejo, y han notificado a la Secretara tal decisin (Manual de
Ramsar). www.ramsar.org/trs

El Marco Estratgico est disponible en versin impresa como No. 17 de la serie Manuales Ramsar y en la pgina
