Human exploitation of natural resources over the past 200 years has caused significant wetlands degradation and loss. Although the Ramsar Convention of 1971 drafted polices for wetland conservation and responsible use, many wetland sites remain inadequately conserved or managed. Maintaining the ecological balance and equilibrium of wetlands requires a clear understanding of the vital role of wetlands, the difficulties they face, and the policies enacted for their protection. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eWetlands Conservation: Current Challenges and Future Strategies\u003c\/i\u003e summarizes both current and emerging management strategies, trends, and policies regarding wetlands protection around the world.
