國際濕地公約僅向締約國大會負責?

國際濕地公約法律文件存放在UNESCO,但國際濕地公約並非UN或UNESCO系統下的環境公約,它僅向締約國大會負責。它視自己為一種國際非政府組織(INGO)?

Ramsar Information Paper no. 2: What is the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands?

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) serves as Depositary for the Convention, but the Ramsar Convention is not part of the United Nations and UNESCO system of environment conventions and agreements. The Convention is responsible only to its Conference of the Contracting Parties (COP), and its day-to-day administration has been entrusted to a secretariat under the authority of a Standing Committee elected by the COP.
