Seventeen people from Ghana, Nigeria, Cuba, Lesotho, Laos and Nepal are participating in the Workshop on Ecological Restoration and Compensation Mechanism Construction in Developing Countries in Lanzhou, the capital of northwest China's Gansu Province.

"With the amount of information that has been generated so far, I think China is doing a very criterion of combating desertification. Throughout the training and learning, there is a potential (for us) to go back home, and maybe try to take the technology into a deeper level."
The training program has been held in Gansu since the 1990s, with about 1,000 technical workers and government officials from 87 countries trained.
The training courses combine in-class learning and field practice, focusing on theories and techniques of desertification control as well as ecological restoration.
China has made sustained efforts to combat desertification over the years, putting the brakes on desert expansion and contributing to global ecological conservation.
Official data show that during the 2012-2022 period, China's accumulative afforestation area reached 960 million mu (64 million hectares), while 165 million mu of grassland was improved, and more than 12 million mu of wetlands were added or restored.
