I know it will be difficult to obtain organizational support in such a short time for many of you, but even a tentative indication would be of value. Please note that the proposal has been written in the Form required by UNFSS and all yellow highlighted text is part of the Form.

There have been many <b>Actions/Solutions suggested in the Action Track papers</b> of the UNFSS. We have conducted a review of these and submitted comments to UNFSS, through the assistance of ILRI, that point to how we can ensure that pastoralists and rangelands benefit from these actions and solutions. <br><br>2. ILRI and GASL are organizing an <b>independent dialogue on livestock sustainability.</b> More information to follow. <br><br>3. <b>UNFSS Public Forums</b> = I shared information with you yesterday on how you can participate in these Public Fora ; please do consider doing so. <br><br>4. Hijaba Ykhanbai of Mongolia has been nominated as a <b>UNFSS Champion for Pastoralists </b>and has been actively engaging in different ways. Many thanks and congratulations to Hijaba for his efforts, as it appears that the UNFSS secretariat has taken note and is doing more to reach pastoralists. Hijaba, please let us know if there is anything else we can do to help you to bring more pastoralist voices to this process. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>5. <b>UNFSS National Dialogues </b>= If you are engaging in the National Dialogues, please let us know. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Looking forward to getting your feedback on the <b>Game Changer Idea by 10th May.</b> Please do not reply all, as that will send too many emails to peoples' inboxes.
