India’s Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change and Germany’s environment ministry signed a joint declaration of intent on the conservation and wise use of wetlands of international importance on 1 September. The signing took place during the fourth Indo-German Environment Forum.

The forum has served as the two countries’ high-level bilateral environmental policy platform since 2008. The ministry release did not set out a detailed implementation timetable or name specific wetland projects; it described the wider discussions as focused on climate resilience, resource efficiency and sustainable development pathways.
