This environmental education kit for dryland countries is intended for secondary (and late primary) school teachers and their pupils in countries affected by desertification.
The kit offers a creative approach to environmental education and is designed to arouse pupils's curiosity, appeal to their artistic sensibilities, and provide a leverage for better transmission of scientific information and environmental knowledge.
Free online versions are available in Arabic, English, French, and Spanish.The kit was a UNESCO contribution to the 2006 International Year of Deserts and Desertification. The kit also feeds into activities developed as part of the Decade of Education for Sustainable Development (2005-2014), the promotion of which falls within UNESCO's fields of competence.
