We are delighted to announce that the IPSI Secretariat will organize the 11th Global Conference of the International Partnership for the Satoyama Initiative (IPSI-11), to be held in Yokohama, Japan, from 28 to 30 June 2027. During IPSI-11, we will review the IPSI Strategy and Plan of Action 2023-2030 (PoA) based on the Mid-term Implementation Report of the PoA. As IPSI reaches the mid-point of its current PoA, this process will help identify achievements and challenges and inform the partnership’s future strategic direction. We will also have opportunities for thematic discussions with breakout sessions and a Public Forum, and to learn about the area’s landscapes and culture through Study Tours.
