Moreover, the children will be provided with the necessary equipment for practical activities including more than 15 thousand children involved in activities on the rational use of soils. Such interactive seminars are planned to be held on a regular basis.<\/div>\r\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00abEnvironmental education is an important factor in ensuring sustainable development and increasing everyone\u2019s responsibility in the rational use of natural resources. Ultimately it forms the environmental awareness of the society. At the same time, nutrition education from an early age allows to make a choice in favor of healthy food in the pathway to strengthening the population\u2019s health, eradicating hunger and improving food security. In this regard, the implementation of this project is very important and fully complies with the Sustainable Development Goals\u00bb,<\/em> \u2014 <strong>Sherzod Umarov, Assistant FAO Representative <\/strong>said.<\/div>\r\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0In the scope of an FAO project on Integrated natural resources management in drought-prone and salt affected agricultural production landscapes in Central Asia and Turkey (CACILM-2), there were 22 greenhouses built and transferred to specialized and eco- schools of the country on a grant basis. In these greenhouses, students will attend classes designed to improve their knowledge and skills in the field of environmental protection, agriculture, ecology and rational use of resources.<\/div>\r\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0One of these greenhouses was granted to the specialized school No.102. Opening of the greenhouse became a part of a festive event dedicated to the World Food Day, where children were shown presentations on proper nutrition and rational use of soil. They also engaged in master classes on the use of greenhouses and preparation of healthy food.
