>> As part of our engagement, we are submitting an official side-event
>> proposal to the COP15 Secretariat on grasslands. We are reaching out to
>> you, as Vice Chair of the IYRP, to solicit your interest in partnering
>> with us in the proposal application.
>>
>>
>>
>> Our proposal explores the importance of grassland ecosystems and its
>> conservation via grazing livestock. We would invite you to review draft
>> details attached. We are spearheading this initiative as the grasslands
>> ecosystem is a critically important landscape for Canada’s cattle ranchers
>> and farmers. But there are a whole host of reasons, related to livestock,
>> livelihood and habitat preservation, for why COP15 needs to include a
>> discussion on grasslands.
>>

>>
>> At this juncture, we require that you:
>>
>>
>>
>>    1. Review the proposal attached.
>>    2. If desired, provide your acceptance to be listed as a co-host on
>>    the proposal application.
>>
>>
>>
>> Please note that the application deadline is *September 30th*. Your
>> earliest consideration is appreciated.
>>
>>
>>
>> If we are successful in our application, we will reach out to outline the
>> full scope of the partnering opportunity. If successful, involvement in the
>> side-event can mean many things: logo placement; financial or in-kind
>> contributions; speaking opportunities, logo placement  etc. The first
>> step is submitting an application.
