YL meets SUMAMAD's Boshra Salem (1) @ UNESCO's DESD World Conference 2009

(part 1 of 2) Eric chats with Prof. Boshra Salem (Univ. of Alexandria) of SUMAMAD on the Conference closing day. SUMAMAD (part of the exhibit of 25 selected global good practices) is a program for improving marginal dryland management in cooperation of the UNU United Nations University and many partners stretching from Tunesia to China! A very important good practice program considering climate change and water scarcety! You can learn a few things about their approach, their interaction with villagers and the many things that come with working with villagers in remote areas, from women empowerment to virtually everything and having fun together. http://www.inweh.unu.edu/inweh/drylands/SUMAMAD.htm
