Supported by the CPWF, this two-year project titled “Valuing the role of living aquatic
resources to rural livelihoods in multiple-use, seasonally-inundated wetlands in the
Yellow River Basin of China, for improved governance” focused on linking the use of
wetlands resources by local communities and value of wetlands ecosystem services with
management implications for the riverine and coastal wetlands in Henan and Shandong
provinces. A study on this Chinese situation of pursuing a rapid development agenda
while recognizing the need to conserve critical wetland areas would provide insights on
the issues and possible avenues for sustainable wetlands management that may be
relevant to other developing countries.
