<div dir="ltr">Hi Maryam,<div>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".</div><div>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.</div><div>Jon </div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote gmail_quote_container"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, 31 Mar 2025 at 10:16, HerreraCalvo, Pedro (NFOD) <<a href="mailto:Pedro.HerreraCalvo@fao.org">Pedro.HerreraCalvo@fao.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div class="msg-4669623446614068154">

<b>Asunto:</b> [Iyrp-gcg] FOR YOUR APPROVAL: Revised/updated IYRP 12 Global Themes<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Dear members of the GCG<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">The original set of themes selected for each month of 2026 was developed in 2017. We felt it was important to do a final revisit and updating so as to be prepared for campaigns in 2026. We are hopeful that the Government of Mongolia and
FAO's International Steering Committee for IYRP (soon to be established) will also adopt these themes. <u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">The revision has benefited from input and consultation with the RISGs and the IYRP Working Groups, and the Global Secretariat (Thanks to all !). <u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">The 12 Global Themes are meant to provide a coordinated framework for all IYRP partners at the
<b>Global</b> level. We recognize however, that certain key messages might be more important in one region than another, and therefore each RISG is encouraged to adapt the framework to their needs. <u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">. <u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">In the next few months, we will further refine the key messages described for each Theme, identify concrete examples to be disseminated, and determine the most suitable outreach methods. <u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>At this time, we would seek your approval of the main framework - especially the title of each monthly Theme. </b><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>

<p class="MsoNormal">All comments are welcome with a <b>deadline of 2nd April 2025.</b><u></u><u></u></p>
