[Iyrp-gcg] FOR YOUR APPROVAL: Revised/updated IYRP 12 Global Themes

[Jonathan Davies]

Hi Maryam,
You have done a good job of capturing all the feedback. You have captured
one of my suggestions as a sub-point whereas I was proposing to replace the
main message, because the main message is a bit negative. I suggested to
replace: "Pastoralism is not a nostalgic return to the past, but a way
forward towards future sustainability in a changing world" with
"Pastoralism is a dual food production and environmental management system
that can contribute to food security while protecting biodiversity and
mitigating climate change while preserving aspects of our shared global
cultural heritage".
Maybe you decided to stick with the original in which case no further
comment from me. The document is ready to share more widely in my view.
Jon
