Streams of Work
Wetlands International “streams” denote our modes of working across different wetland types and issues, and help us make the distinctions needed to run our- programmes. This mapshows the major global regions wherethe streams Coasts and Deltas, Blue Lifelines, Water Stores and Peatland Treasures are focused. These are denoted bycoloured layersthat correspond to the stream in the legend showing our contribution to the SDGs. Due to its wide global reach, Healthy Wetland Nature is not shown on this map. Instead, we spotlight our waterbird flyways work on page 80.

Contributing to the Sustainable Development Goals The world has committed to Agenda 2030: 17 Sus- tainable Development Goals(SDGs), and the Paris Climate Agreement. Providing water for all, ending poverty and hunger, reducing water-related disas- ters, mitigation and adaptation to climate change all depend on healthy wetlands. Our work across Coasts and Deltas, Blue Lifelines, Water Stores and Peatland Treasures all contribute to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.
