World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought
On June 17, we celebrate World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought.
Desertification is a process by which vegetation in drylands, such as grasslands or shrublands, decreases and eventually disappears. The concept does not solely refer to the physical expansion of existing deserts, but to the various processes that threaten to turn currently non-desert ecosystems into deserts.
Have a look at this educational article on how we combat desertification and drought, in partnership with the Global Tree Initiative.
