Open-ending Scientific Committee for the International Year of Sustainable Mountain Development 2022

To ensure that the International Year of Sustainable Mountain Development 2022 fully benefits mountain peoples and ecosystems, increasing knowledge about their main challenges and promoting investments toward mountain areas, the Mountain Partnership Secretariat launched an Open-ended Scientific Committee.

The main aim of this committee is to produce scientifically sound messages to effectively communicate “mountain issues and strengths” to diverse audiences to mobilize attention and resources. The Committee will contribute to overseeing the observance of the International Year and sharing mountain related information and knowledge.

If you would like to participate in the Committee, please send an email expressing your interest to [email protected].
