[Iyrp-gcg] FYI: IYC Opening Ceremony on 4th December and pastoralist representation

[Ann Waters-Bayer]

Dear IYRP GCG members,

Although this blog by Ilse Köhler-Rollefson of the League for Pastoral Peoples is not about the IYRP in 2026 but rather about the International Year of Camelids (IYC) in 2024, it is well worth reading as it highlights a challenge that also the IYRP may face with regard to representation of pastoralists:
The International Year of Camelids to be inaugurated on 4th December, 2023 – will it help pastoralists?

Cheers,
