Your Voice Can Still Shape N2026!
Although N2026 has successfully concluded with the adoption of the Kyoto Declaration, we are still welcoming your contributions to Stakeholder Voices: Kyoto 2026.
This companion document will bring together diverse perspectives, concerns, expectations, and proposed actions from N2026 participants. Unlike the Kyoto Declaration, it is not intended to represent a negotiated consensus, but to preserve the richness of different voices.
Whether or not you participated in MSR4, we warmly invite you to share your perspectives. If you have already responded, additional reflections are also welcome.
Submission deadline: November 20, 2026 (23:59 JST)Share Your Voice – MSR4 Response Form
We plan to publish Stakeholder Voices: Kyoto 2026 on the INI and N2026 websites around December 1, 2026.
Thank you for helping carry the N2026 dialogue beyond Kyoto!Nov 9, 2026 10:35 AM JST
Join MSR3 and MSR4 on the Final Day of N2026!
Two Multi-Stakeholder Roundtables (MSR3 and MSR4) will take place on the morning of Friday, November 6 (Day 5), offering opportunities to contribute to the final stages of the Kyoto Declaration process and help shape future action on sustainable nitrogen management.
MSR3: Toward Adoption of the Kyoto Declaration (09:00–10:30)
Participants will reflect on the evolution of nitrogen declarations and the latest revisions to the Kyoto Declaration through dialogue with fellow participants. Together, we will assess its readiness for adoption, identify any critical remaining issues, and highlight priorities for the afternoon Panel Discussion.
MSR4: Broadening the Voices (10:50–12:20)
Through small-group dialogue and individual reflection, participants will explore what different stakeholders can contribute, what they expect from INI and the scientific community, and what actions they personally wish to take over the next three years. Their contributions will help shape Stakeholder Voices, the companion document to the Kyoto Declaration.
