Our country also takes part among countries which are affected by desertification. Although there are no any deserts in Turkey, Turkey is one of the leading countries in the world in the activities of combating desertification and erosion. On the grounds of this reason, our country is appreciated by international agencies due to its success in the works of afforestation and combating desertification and erosion. Infertility of soils and desertification underlie many socio-economic challenges such as food storage at first, immigration, terrorism and poverty which are experienced in Africa. Basic solution for problems in Africa is to increase agents capacity and to train people on how degraded soils can be fertile and how existing forests can be used in a sustainable way with afforestation works. General Directorate of Combating Desertification and Erosion Control and General Directorate of Forestry within Ministry of Forestry and Water Affairs are transparent and notable agencies which are respectful to human, nature and environment. 1
