Wetland City Accreditation is crucial.
The City of Victoria Falls formally receiving accreditation as a Ramsar Wetlands City. The accreditation was done on 28 January 2025 in recognition of the wise use of wetlands by the City and partners who include community, private sector and tourism industry players.
DID YOU KNOW? Wetlands store more carbon than all the world's forests combined. At #RamsarCOP15 in Victoria Falls 🇿🇼, the UK 🇬🇧 is proud to stand with global partners to protect these vital ecosystems - for #climate, biodiversity & future generations.
“Let us make this a moment where political will meets practical action, where commitments turn into implementation, and where #wetlands are finally recognized as the backbone of sustainability.” Dr. @MumbaMusondam opens the @RamsarConv #RamsarCOP15. #WetlandsMatter
Key win wins! Community benefits. 50K+ West African farmers saw 40% income rise from climate-smart agri-credits . Policy momentum. Kenya’s 2024 Carbon Market Regulations ensure revenue reaches locals .

Carbon trading remains a crucial tool to push for climate action in Africa
As #COP15 kicks off , Africa’s carbon market potential takes center stage. Did you know? Only 11% of global carbon credits originated from Africa (2016–2021), yet the continent holds 30% of the world’s carbon sink potential. Time to unlock it! #CarbonCredits #ClimateAction
President Emmerson Mnangagwa has arrived in Victoria Falls to officially open the 15th Meeting of the Conference of the Contracting Parties to the Convention on Wetlands (COP15). #RamsarCOP15 #WetlandsCOP15
