Dear Mountain Partnership members and friends,

On Thursday, 8 July at 13.00 EST / 19.00 CEST, a side event organized by the Permanent Mission of the Kyrgyz Republic to the United Nations, with the support of the Mountain Partnership Secretariat, will take place via Zoom.
The main objectives of the event are to:

*         advocate for policies that support food security, poverty reduction and sustainable food systems in mountains, including those associated with family farming and traditional crops and diets, by recognizing their global importance for biodiversity conservation;

  *   launch and spotlight examples of the FAO publication Mountain farming systems - seeds for the future on agroecology in mountains for more resilient agricultural and food systems;
  *   share and build upon initiatives related to innovation and the diversification of mountain livelihoods to safeguard decent work opportunities, particularly for women and youth in rural areas; and
  *   explore how to promote innovative partnerships and collaboration with the private sector to increase funds for achieving the SDGs and addressing the COVID-19 crisis and aftermath in mountains.

This meeting will be recorded and streamed live to the Mountain Partnership Facebook<https://www.facebook.com/MountainPartnership>.
