The Greater Mekong was originally defined as an economic subregion in 1992 by the Asian Development Bank when Cambodia, China, Lao PDR, Myanmar, Thailand, and Vietnam entered into an agreement of economic cooperation.

Geographically the area is centered around the Mekong River Basin, which begins on the vast Tibetan Platueau in China and ends at the Mekong Delta in southern Vietnam.

The WWF Greater Mekong Programme

In November 2005, WWF Indochina merged with WWF Thailand to become the WWF Greater Mekong Programme.

This exciting development will help WWF focus its conservation efforts on the biologically diverse landscapes and ecosystems of the Greater Mekong Basin.
