<div><span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:medium">Thanks
for the call for nominations for co-chair of the IYRP
GCG. I would like to nominate Dr Igshaan Samnuels from
South Africa </span><span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:medium">as your
co-chair.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:medium"><br>
</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:medium">Igshaan
is a researcher
on rangeland ecology and management for the Agricultural
Research Council (ARC)
in South Africa. He holds a PhD in Botany from the
University of Cape Town and
has worked in arid agricultural landscapes for 19 years.
His research puts him
in touch with grassroots activities and the challenges
of pastoralists,
particularly the indigenous Nama peoples of South
Africa. He is the current
president of the Grassland Society of Southern Africa
(GSSA), having served in
this position and other GSSA portfolios previously. He
is also on the
International Rangeland Congress (IRC) Continuing
Committee representing Africa
south of the Sahara. Furthermore, he is part of the core
leadership team of the
IYRP RISG for Eastern and Southern Africa and a member
of the IYRP GCG. He has
been involved in policy development at both local and
national level in South
Africa and is currently leading the development of the
country’s rangeland
management strategy. </span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:medium"><br>
</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:medium">I
have been working closely
with Igshaan during the awareness-raising and advocacy
activities leading up to
the approval of the IYRP 2026. He has devoted a great
deal of time to these
activities and has been utterly reliable when we
agreed on shared tasks. I can assure you 100%, Maryam:
you will be able to depend
on Igshaan in sharing the co-chair tasks!</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:medium"><br>
</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:medium">I
asked Igshaan about his
willingness to take on the co-chair position. He
discussed it with his family
and with his manager in ARC, as he is aware that the
tasks will take some time
away from his other professional duties and his personal
life. All have
supported the idea that he take on the co-chair
position. He has therefore
agreed to accept this nomination.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:medium"><br>
</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:medium">In
my view, he would
provide a perfect balance for you, Maryam, in
co-chairing the GCG.</span></div>
