International Year of Rangelands and Pastoralists 2026

The United Nations have declared 2026 to be the International Year of Rangelands and Pastoralists.

IYRP and SRPA

The International Year of Rangelands and Pastoralists (IYRP) provides a global platform to promote the value and sustainability of rangelands—an objective that closely aligns with the vision and mission of the Southern Rangelands Pastoral Alliance (SRPA).

As a key collaborator, SRPA is building on the IYRP momentum to unite pastoral communities, researchers, and policymakers, both at state and national levels, to raise awareness and champion best-practice land management.

SRPA’s current strategic plan focuses on leadership in sustainable pastoral production, knowledge sharing, and research-driven innovation.

Through participation in IYRP activities—including presentations, communication campaigns, and international network-building—SRPA is actively delivering on strategic goals to improve policy recognition, promote investment in rangeland management, and foster healthy landscapes and viable pastoral businesses.

IYRP Australiasian Launch

The Australiasian launch of the International Year of Rangelands and Pastoralists (IYRP) is in Western Australia on October 3rd at the Royal Agricultural Society Show in Perth is an important milestone, as it brings global attention to the value and sustainability of rangelands at one of the state’s most iconic agricultural events.

This high-profile launch provides a unique opportunity to engage a wide audience—including pastoralists, policymakers, industry partners, and the public—in vital conversations about land management, resilience, and rural livelihoods.

UNCCD

The IYRP has also exposed SRPA to a broader range of international organisations and collaborations, which has increased opportunities for advocacy and partnerships.

Most notably, SRPA has recently become an affiliate member of the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) further strengthening its influence and strategic reach in sustainable rangeland management at the global level.

Global Land Outlook

The United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) recognizes that addressing and reversing land degradation is a key sustainable development priority for many countries, particularly in the developing world.

In response, the UNCCD secretariat and its partners publish strategic communications products under the Global Land Outlook (GLO) flagship to facilitate insights, debate, and discourse on transformative pathways to improve land use policy, planning, and management practice at various scales.

The aim of the GLO publications is to raise awareness and communicate evidence-based, policy-relevant information to a variety of stakeholders, including national governments designing and implementing their commitments to sustainably manage and restore land resources under the Sustainable Development Goals, including targets to achieve Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN).

The data and evidence presented in the GLO reports demonstrates that more informed and responsible decision making can help to reverse the current worrying trends in the state of our land resources.

All GLO reports and working papers, can be found at: https://www.unccd.int/resources/global-land-outlook/overview/
