<p class="MsoNormal">We are putting together a newsletter to update the delegates of the upcoming International Grassland Congress in the USA in May 2023 on the past activities and future plans of the IYRP. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">We would like to include a section on the type of actions that regions have taken or events that they organised, that made a real meaningful impact (In whatever way you think it did) towards achieving the IYRP goals. A brief description of
the event or action taken might include the name of the event, date, place, objectives of the event and what materialized during the event and how it benefited the IYRP. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Could all regions provide a brief summary (5-8 lines) of just
<b>ONE</b> such an event/action that has occurred in your region and that you were part of? Examples might be the IRC in Kenya 2022, Youth Festival in the Arctic in 2022, the ICCA consortium event in 2022, SRM 2023 IYRP special sessions etc.. <o:p></o:p></p>
