Gabon
About Gabon
Gabon is introduced through six dated records from UNESCO, Ramsar, and FAO. The lessons use heritage, wetlands, cultural practice, and a forest measure to teach source-aware English. Each lesson keeps a source, claim, and date together, and it does not turn a limited record into a broad statement about every person.
