CIFOR-ICRAF joined global leaders to highlight the urgency of wetland protection—and the need to turn science into action.
Wetlands may cover less than 1% of Earth’s surface, but they support over a billion people, store carbon, regulate water, and anchor food systems.
Yet they’re disappearing three times faster than forests.
This COP is a critical moment to shift from awareness to implementation—placing wetlands at the heart of climate, nature, and development solutions.

This portrait captures a spontaneous and cheerful interaction in an outdoor setting, lending it an authentic feel. The focus on the man in the foreground, with a crisp and clear expression, effectively draws the viewer into the scene. The aperture setting of f/10 has allowed for a good depth of field, keeping both subjects in reasonable focus while softly blurring the background. However, the lighting is slightly harsh, which might be mitigated by adjusting the time of day or using a diffuser to soften the shadows on the faces. Overall, the photo conveys a pleasant atmosphere and the dynamics of an engaging conversation.

This image captures a unique and engaging moment between two individuals at an indoor event. The use of a 21mm focal length at f/1.8 has successfully blurred the background, focusing attention on the subjects and the small animal, which adds a whimsical element to the scene. The choice of ISO 320 and a shutter speed of 1/160 is well suited for indoor lighting conditions, ensuring clarity and detail without noticeable noise.
The composition benefits from the interaction of the subjects, drawing the viewer's eye between the man's amused expression and the woman proudly holding the squirrel. However, the wide aperture, while excellent for creating a shallow depth of field, has slightly limited the sharpness of the woman on the left, who appears less focused compared to the man. A smaller aperture could have been used to ensure both subjects were in sharp focus. Overall, the photograph exudes a warm, joyful atmosphere and showcases a delightful interaction.
