This year, its 25th anniversary of the day to celebrate the 25th year of the United Nation Convention to combact Desertification made by countries on sustainable land management. The day was declared by United Nation General aassembly in 1995 . The theme of this year is "Lets Grow the Future Together" and the event is being hosted by the Ankara by the government by the government of Turkey. The Data by UN says "By 2025, 1.8 billion people will experience absolute water scarcity and 2/3 of the world will be under water stressed conditionand 135 million people may be displaced by desertification by 2045". This day focuses on the Sustainable Development No. 15. With the increase in the cutting down of trees and deforestation and increasing impacts of climate change, the fertile land is being turned into desert. With the increasing population to feed and decreasing amount of fertile land, we must focus on minimizing the impacts of drought and increasing desertification of land.

Hi Kushal,
Thank you for writing this report and I've seen that you are uploading many reports to TUNZA Eco-generation website. I highly appreciate your hard work! I really like your topic of this report which is desertification. As global warming and climate change gets severe, desertification tends to get worse as well. I think this is an important issue that we should deal with high importance for the future. I am glad that you've actually mentioned it! Great work!

Hello Kushal
Thanks for your wonderful report on the world day to combat desertification and drought. Sustainable land management is very important as it is directly related to food security and stable water provision. However, as you have mentioned, increasing impacts of climate change and deforestation are making land dry and barren. Thank you for letting us know about such a meaningful day. Keep up the good work!

Thank you for drawing us to the attention of how important it is to not only educate, but to act on what were got an education from. World day to combat desertification and drought should continue being spoken of an celebrated as we are still continuing the issue of drought and land degradation.

With gratitude!
