Declaration on protection, promotion of loukkos marshlands signed
Morocco, Environment, 4/12/2002
Several Moroccan associations, the CICONIA Foundation (Liechtenstein) and the SPANA Association (Great Britain) have pledged under a cooperation declaration to join efforts to protect the marshlands of the Loukkos river that runs from the Rif Mountains and flows into the Atlantic near Larache, northern Morocco.
The signatory sides undertake to upgrade their cooperation to secure an integrated development and preserve the Loukkos marshlands, which are a crossroads for migratory birds and a shelter for exceptional flora and fauna.
The signatories of this declaration, dubbed "the Larache Declaration," pledge to extend financial, moral and technical backing to this partnership.
CICONIA Chairman, Prince Christophe of Liechtenstein, was among the signatories.
