The aim of the meeting was to coordinate and build synergies among Regional Focal Points activities, to compare methodologies and tools, exchange information and share experiences. The following are three selected interviews with participants:
1.Interview with Mr. Pema Gyamtsho, a member the Nepal-based International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD) and also FAO's SARD-M focal point for Hindu Kush, Himalayas Mountains. An important aspect of the Centre's mode of operation is its increased collaboration that focuses on supporting and initiating processes that will lead to appropriate policies for mountain areas in specific countries such as China and India.
