[IYRPsupportgroup] Pitch for kick-start funds to establish a global data platform on rangelands

[Flintan, Fiona (ILRI)]

Hi All,

Just to let you know that we/ILRI put in a proposal to the CGIAR Big Data platform for 100,000usd to kick-start the establishment of a global data platform on rangelands to be developed with partners. We are through to the final selection, our pre-filmed pitches will be presented tomorrow afternoon, and then final decision will be made on Friday evening.

Here is a blog on the subject, of course mentioning the IYRP: https://livestock.cgiar.org/news/rangelands-spotlight-cgiars-big-data-platform-inspire-challenge

Best
Fiona
