Partnerships with the private sector

Beginning with the pioneering collaboration between the Convention on Wetlands and the Danone Group and its Evian water company, the Convention has welcomed opportunities to expand the resource base of the Convention and its activities by developing mutually beneficial relationships with the business sector. 

The Convention's objectives for such relationships are defined in the Principles for partnerships between the Convention on Wetlands and the business sector adopted through Resolution X.12 of 2008.
