Gudrun Schmidt, a local consultant of SCSI in East Iceland, discusses landcare with the participants
Recently an article titled Combating land degradation in the High North was published on the UNU website
(unu.edu). The article describes briefly some of UNU-LRT activities and the topics dealt with in the annual six-month training course run by
UNU-LRT. This summer’s one week field trip is described in detail but the field trip is an important part of the six-month training course.
Perspectives and experiences from two fellows of this year’s training are also given. The article can
