Conference paper

It is with great pleasure and emotion that I address you today, distinguished guests and participants, to close the work of this international scientific conference, which I am convinced will be a notable event in the history of combating desertification. In fact, the moment has arrived to say goodbye after three days spent together discussing and exchanging our points of view on the problems faced in the drylands, in a warm and convivial manner.
