「修復、闢建和改善香港濕地」工作坊

扶輪百周年紀念濕地研究院與香港工程師學會將於2007年7月14日(星期六)上午9時15分至下午1時正,聯合舉辦名為「修復、闢建和改善香港濕地」的工作坊。
香港擁有多元化的濕地生境,但因為本港地小人多,許多濕地都受到發展的嚴重威脅。在過往,由於本港並無積極保育濕地,而政府或有關方面亦無就破壞濕地作出賠償,故這類壓力最終都會導致大量濕地流失。然而,在過去十年間,本港發展了一系列修復、闢建和改善本港濕地的技術,以保護這些逐漸消失的生境。我們希望可透過工作坊內的簡報和討論,增加工程師及公眾對濕地重要性的知識、關注和了解,並且幫助他們認識有關的保育技術。我們已邀請了環保團體、商業機構及政府的代表,在工作坊內討論他們有關修復、闢建和改善香港濕地的工作。
查詢詳情,請參閱活動簡介。欲報名參加的人士,請填妥報名表格,並傳真至2482 0369或電郵至 rci wc@w wf.org.hk。報名截止日期為2007年7月11日。其它查詢,請致電3193 7509,聯絡卓宇媛小姐。

Workshop on "Restoration, creation and enhancement of wetlands in HK"

The Rotary Centennial Institute for Wetland Conservation will be co-organizing a workshop on “Restoration, creation and enhancement of wetlands in Hong Kong” with the Hong Kong Institution of Engineers on 14th Jul 2007 (Saturday) from 9:15am to 1pm.

Hong Kong’s has a diversity of wetlands habitat types but many are under severe pressure from development due to the small area of land in the territory. In the past, this pressure has often results in the loss of large areas of these wetland since there were often little incentive or interest to conserve or compensate for the wetland lost. In the past decade however, a range of techniques for the restoration, creation and enhancement of local wetlands have been developed to try and protect these disappearing habitats. We hope that through presentations and discussions in the workshop, we can enhance the knowledge, concern and understanding of engineers and the public about the importance of wetlands and techniques for their conservation. In this workshop, representatives from green groups, the private sector and Government have been invited to discuss their work on the restoration, creation and enhancement of wetlands in Hong Kong.

For more details, please refer to the program outline. For registration, please fill in the registration form and fax it to 2482 0369 or email to rci wc@ww f.org.hk  The deadline for application is 11th Jul 2007. For further enquiries, please contact Ms. Eva Cheuk at 3193 7509
