Mongolia is hosting. MNCRIP is what happens after the delegates leave.

COP17’s Steppe Action Agenda exists to carry political momentum into lasting partnerships, investment and action. A national platform with governance, a programme portfolio and a staged pipeline is how a host country answers that on its own soil.
