The purpose of this resolution is to officially recognize the year 2026 as the "International Year of Rangelands and Pastoralists." This designation aims to raise awareness about the importance of rangelands and the people who manage them, particularly in terms of their ecological, economic, and social contributions. Key provisions of the resolution include a formal acknowledgment of the vast areas of rangelands in the United States and around the world, which provide essential services such as biodiversity, wildlife habitat, and food production.
