[Iyrp-gcg] Poll for IYRP GCG meeting

[Igshaan Samuels]

Thank You Fiona.

Jonathan Davies, the WG coordinator will be at the GCG meeting, so we can
definitely discuss this.

>From my side in conjunction with Mounir Louhaichi and others, we are
putting together an overview of rangelands in Africa paper (no mapping
component), but could still assist in this endeavour.

I will add your suggestion to the GCG agenda.

Kind regards
Igshaan
