Dear Mountain Partnership members and friends,
It is our pleasure to share with you the announcement that, on 16 December, the United Nations General Assembly adopted by consensus a resolution proclaiming 2022 the International Year of Sustainable Mountain Development.
The draft resolution titled "International Year of Sustainable Mountain Development, 2022" (document A/76/L.28) was introduced by the representative of Kyrgyzstan. The draft resolution invites all Member States, international and regional organizations, and other relevant stakeholders to observe the International Year to increase awareness of the importance of sustainable mountain development, he explained. The proclamation of the International Year of Sustainable Mountain Development 2022 not only recognizes the need for preserving the global life support system that is indispensable to the survival of the global ecosystem, but also provides a sound basis for further substantive work on mountain development, thus having a truly global significance for the future of mankind.

We look forward to sharing further information on next year's observance of the International Year of Sustainable Mountain Development - an important opportunity for us all to raise attention toward the many challenges confronting mountain peoples and environments.
Best regards,
The Mountain Partnership Secretariat
