| Résumé : | The avoid-mitigate-compensate sequence is a common approach to wetland conservation. It has been recognized at the international level in various Ramsar documents and in other multilateral fora. The avoid-mitigate-compensate sequence is also a regular feature of many countries’ environmental laws and policies. While not all of these countries use the precise avoid-mitigate-compensate formulation, they use interchangeable correlated terms that are consistent in essence. In the wetland context, the avoid-mitigate-compensate sequence can be an important tool for maintaining the ecological character of wetlands. Such an approach may sometimes be related to a “no net loss” objective. |
