We would like to inform you about an upcoming event ‘‘Summiteers Summit to Save the Himalayas”, which some of you are already aware of. This event, being organized in Copenhagen on the occasion of International Mountain Day on December 11, 2009, aims to draw the attention of the world leaders and the global community gathered in the Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen. The Summit will be organized at Parliament Square, Christianborg Slotsplads between 9 AM and 3 PM.

One of the key features of the event is marching by world renowned summiteers of 8,000 m tall peaks in summit gear on the streets of Copenhagen. Other activities like spectacular time series photographs exhibition, documentaries, cultural program by a Sherpa Cultural Group and a Danish band, speeches by mountaineering icons, and issuing of declaration to save the Himalayas will flank the summit. A 27 member strong team of summiteers with several records from Nepal will be led by mountaineering icon Appa Sherpa to this event. Several ministers from Nepal and other countries will also join this summit.

This event will certainly draw the attention of the global community towards the issues of Himalayan environmental integrity. As an additional outcome, this event will surely help promote Nepal for the Tourism Year 2011. Several institutions such as the NTNC, WWF Nepal, ICIMOD, Nepal Tourism Board, Nepal Mountaineering Association, the World Bank, Danish Embassy, and private institutions are joining the hands with the government to launch this event. This event has already started receiving global media attention and as we move closer to the final days we are sure to receive extensive media coverage. We are confident this event will have far reaching positive repercussions on the Himalayas.

We cannot emphasize enough how important the role of the NRNs can be in making this event a grand success. Some of you have been already requested to help organize this event. We urge you to widely spread the information among the Nepalese and other mountain lovers. We have tried to invite all the summiteers of 8,000 meters peak to Copenhagen but there are many whom we could not reach. You may please help to take this message to all the mountaineers in your contact. Please access our website www.savehimalayas.org and sign on the Himalayan declaration and ask others for the same. We also request, especially those in the region, to attend this summit. Together we can make this a great success. We will update you as we move along and might make specific requests. You may also please send your suggestion and the possible ways you can help to effectively organize this important event. This is a great opportunity for all of us to collectively show our solidarity to a noble Himalayan cause.

Let’s come together to save the Himalayas!!
