Hi Thomas,

 

congratulations for to have assumed the task of Coordinator of Mountain
Partnership. I hope to have the possibility to strengthening the contribute
of my institute (CNR-Istituto di Ricerca Sulle Acque) on the challenges of
water quality/quantity in mountain regions, with particular attention to
Central Asia, where we are operating by 2 decade.

Dear friends of the Mountain Partnership,

 

As communicated to you on 25  July by Mr Eduardo Mansur, Director Forest
Assessment, Management and Conservation Division of FAO’s Forestry
Department, I assumed the task of Interim Coordinator of the Mountain
Partnership Secretariat as of today. It is a pleasure and honor to work with
all of you. Together with the entire team in the Mountain Partnership
Secretariat, I will do my best to live up to the expectations. And please
allow me to express my sincere thanks and appreciation to my predecessors,
Doug McGuire and Olman Serrano, for their excellent work during the last ten
years. 

 

2012 is a strategic year for mountains: we take stock of the achievements 20
years after the 1st Rio Conference, which gave birth to Chapter 13
(Sustainable Mountain Development) in Agenda 21. The celebration of the
International Year of Mountains 2002 and the creation of the Mountain
Partnership were milestone events during that period. The fact that
sustainable mountain development gets prominent attention in the outcome
document of Rio+20 is a clear indicator of success, to which all of you have
significantly contributed through local, national, regional and global
initiatives. But it is also a significant responsibility and a call to the
global community to continue and increase its attention to sustainable
mountain development in order to address the current and future challenges.

 

2012 is also a period of renewal in the Mountain Partnership Secretariat
(MPS). We would like to capitalize on the important achievements of the last
ten years, during which the attention to mountains and mountain people has
considerably increased at international, regional and national levels. The
membership has recognized that it is the right moment to critically review
the current strategy of the Mountain Partnership (MP), based on the
achievements and lessons learned since its creation. It has also been
recognized that it is time to strengthen the governance structure of the MP
by making it more inclusive and participatory. This process was launched in
the context of the preparations for Rio+20 and during the Rio Conference
itself, but it needs further reflection, discussion and refinement. We hope
that by February 2013 the MP will be fully operational and supported by a
new governance structure agreed upon by all. We will keep you regularly
informed about the progress we are making.

 

We very much look forward to working with you and we thank you very much for
your continued support.

 

Sincerely, 

 

Thomas
