From my research to date, I have come to ask myself a couple
of questions over and over again. The one question that I will be focusing on
for this week is, what role does the government of developed mountainous
nations in SMD-advocacy play? This week I will be fortunate enough to play a
larger part in finding out the answer to just that question. In a couple of days,
the Mountain Focus Group will be co-hosting a conference of members of the
Mountain Partnership in North America. I place emphasis on the co-host part.
This meeting will take place at the Permanent Mission of Italy to the United
Nations. Developing countries from around the globe will be participating.
Beyond a simple allocation of funds, such countries as Switzerland and Italy
spear-head efforts and events that promote the important work of developing
countries.
The meeting that I will be participating in in a couple of
days is such an event. I have spent every day since I found out studying and
preparing a speech that will presented to the attending members. It should be
quite interesting and I am looking forward to the next few days.
