<p>Many thanks, Kathrine - and all the best to those of you
presenting at the breakfast meeting tomorrow.</p>
<p>UNEA will be a sad occasion, after several people on the way to
the conference were killed yesterday in the plane crash near
Addis. A moment of silence on their honour would be fitting.
Condolences to those who lost friends and colleagues.<br>

<div class="">Dear all,</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">This week UN Environment is releasing the report "A
case of benign neglect: Knowledge gaps about sustainability in
pastoralism and rangelands”. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The report addresses the UNEA-2 resolution on
"Combating Desertification, Land Degradation and Drought
and Promoting Sustainable Pastoralism and Rangelands”, and
it identifies the need for a global integrated assessment of
rangelands and pastoralists that will provide a
knowledge baseline crucial for monitoring the achievement of the
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) among pastoralists.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Key findings and recommendations of the report will
be presented at a ministerial breakfast meeting tomorrow at
UNEA-4.</div>
