February 2023

Welcome readers, to this year’s Second issue of Legist.

Wetlands are areas where water covers the soil, or is present either at or near the surface of the soil all year or for varying periods of time during the year, including during the growing season. To protect this extinct species World Wetlands Day is celebrated annually on 2nd February and aims to raise global awareness about the vital role of wetlands for people and the planet. This day also marks the date of the adoption of the Convention on Wetlands on 2 February 1979, in the Iranian city of Ramsar.

The Legist welcomes you to have a holistic look at the international and national developments taking place to restore the ecosystem along with restoration of wetlands.

Happy Reading!
