The objectives of the event are to:
To mark World Wetlands Day and use it to take a look at wetland conservation in the UK.
To look at the similarities and differences in taking action for wetland biodiversity in three very different habitats coastal, lowland and upland wetlands.
To explore the way that policies, research and practical action need to be joined together to help deliver the most effective outcomes.
To bring together the wetland constituency so that it can meet and share experiences in a variety of settings, not least by looking at two very significant case examples in terms of the Great Fen and Paxton pits.
