It was a pleasure to meet Dr
@MumbaMusondam, Secretary General of the Convention on Wetlands
#RAMSAR, during her visit to Togo, including Aného, where
@UN_Togo is actively working alongside communities to protect and restore vital wetland ecosystems.
A rich and inspiring exchange on Wetlands that are indispensable for the countless benefits or “ecosystem services” they provide humanity, ranging from freshwater supply, food and building materials, and biodiversity, to flood control, groundwater recharge, and climate change mitigation.
We reinforced our collective commitment to preserving wetlands and supporting the people who depend on them for their livelihoods particularly women.
Beyond the important discussions on strengthening cooperation including with neighbouring countries, the visit was marked by a strong sense of sisterhood, human connection, and genuine bonding, a reminder that effective partnerships are built not only on shared objectives, but also on trust and mutual respect. Thank you dear sister Musonda.
