beef and sustainability. The GRSB seeks to have
influence across its members, roundtables, other
international bodies, global influencers and

about its role vis-a-vis its members, regional and
national roundtables, emerging geographies of
opportunity, and other key actors on these
issues

I would like to officially convene the 2016 global conference on Sustainable beef and welcome you all behalf of the GRSB as well as the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association.
Since our inception in 2012 the GRSB has greatly advanced the discussion around sustainable beef
We have 5 main goals:
To expand global reach through new roundtables, projects, and stakeholder engagement
Increase relationships with targeted regions and countries
Support the creation of roundtables in identified countries or regions
Recognize sustainable beef systems based on process and demonstrated impact
Connect donors and prospective project proponents
Demonstrate results by creating a data platform, aggregating regional
roundtable and project findings, and tracking key global metrics
Create a global platform for data reporting and sharing
Identify key global metrics and develop methods to track from publically available data
Communicate continuous improvement around the globe
Increase awareness and knowledge of sustainability improvements made both by members and others throughout the entire beef value chain and disseminate content to and through members
Engage on global issues through convening sectors, roundtables and geographies
Work with members to identify and share key innovations, tools and actions
Identify key global and emerging issues, initiate and support issue-action working groups
Host global conferences
Strengthen communication with and participate in domestic, regional and international bodies such as the FAO
Nurture GRSB membership, member value and revenues.
Continually articulate, refine and adjust the GRSB value proposition for members to stay engaged and active
Expand membership within and across sectors and geographies
Conduct annual work planning prior to budgeting
Regine the current revenue model
2012-2015 were the foundation years for the GRSB, we established a meaningful multi-stakeholder membership across the membership categories as well as across borders, we developed bylaws, established the Principles and Criteria for sustainable beef, supported the establishment of 2 new regional roundtables and took on many learnings from our Brazilian teachers who already had their roundtable established. None of these accomplishments were small tasks, thank-you to Cameron and all of those that were integral to those successes.

We should all be proud that we have taken this topic of sustainability a topic so robust, complex, personal… important and we have created a forum and a targeted strategy to work together and ensure positive impact
I am proud to be in an industry that collaborates and innovates across borders, areas of specialty and viewpoints to find positive solutions
Today we are XX members of the Global Roundtable, here in the room today we are XX individuals from 14 different countries.
