Convened by the REPAiR Project, this online discussion will explore how myths about 'participation' affect initiatives that aim to support people in rangelands.
We warmly invite anyone with an interest in rangelands, pastoralism and myths about them, to join, share your stories and rethink how we ‘see’ rangelands and pastoralism.
This event is part of the REPAiR Project's engagement with the International Year of Rangelands and Pastoralists (IYRP 2026).
