Multilateral environmental agreements

One area in which governments and other stakeholders recorded qualified successes in the 1970s was wildlife conservation. This was achieved through a combination of legal actions at the global level which were (and still are) enforced at the national level with variable effectiveness. The foundation for some of these successes was laid by multilateral environmental agreements such as the:

_ 1971 Convention on Wetlands of International Importance Especially as Waterfowl Habitat (Ramsar);

_ 1972 Convention Concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage (World Heritage);

_ 1973 Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES); and

_ 1979 Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals (CMS).
