The educational guide contained in this kit is addressed to teachers around the world living in areas affected by or under threat from desertification. For this reason, the guide should be seen as a general presentation to be adapted to the specific realities and preoccupations of each region or country. The guide begins with the different problems of desertification, which the teachers could integrate into lessons (fauna, flora, crop varieties or rearing, methods of land exploitation, socio-economic problems etc.). It presents the major objectives of the Convention and proposes several solutions to combat desertification.
