[IYRPsupportgroup] [pastoralist-hub] A wonderful video from Asociación Trashumancia y Naturaleza

[Pablo Manzano Baena]

Dear all,
I am extremely happy you are considered a similar joint action. The transit
of the sheep herd through Madrid has been organized since 1994 and it has
been very effective at putting mobile pastoralism in the public agenda
because of the high visibility of the action, which is also a pretty
positive celebration-like one. As a consequence, news on pastoralism make
their way much more easily among Spanish media than among equivalent ones
in e.g. the European Union. Consequently, positive policies for mobile
pastoralism and drove roads, although very far from perfect, do have a
positive comparative advantage in the country compared with neighbouring
ones such as Portugal, France or Italy. Moreover, and because of my work
specialization, I have frequently told by people from all over the world
that they saw the Spanish sheep featured at their national broadcasters.
>From what we have experienced in Spain, I think a joint, coordinated
mobilization in several capital cities for a number of years on a row could
have an extraordinary advocacy effect. I am pretty sure Trashumancia y
Naturaleza would be happy to take part in such a global mobilization,
adjusting their transit through Madrid to the agreed date.
Best,
Pablo
