dc.descriptionForest wetlands, living in a variety of forest organisms, are sensitive to external pressure, and are likely to be damaged due to their unit area which is smaller than inland wetlands and coastal wetlands. This study was conducted to grasp the current status of wetland-related systems and designations at domestic and abroad, and to utilize them as basic data for establishing policies for forest wetlands in the future. A literature survey of developed countries such as the United States, Canada, Germany and Japan was conducted in order to collect information on (1) wetland-related laws, (2) wetland management and designation, and (3) geographic information system. South Korea, the United States and Canada have laws on wetlands, while Germany and Japan have laws on ecological environment. In Germany, Ramsar's wetland registration area was the highest at 2.43% (34 units) compared to the land area. For systematic wetland management, countries collected data related to wetlands and shared them through the geographic information system. Referring to this, it is necessary to supplement the legal and institutional management of domestic forest wetlands and to conduct systematic investigations and share information.
