I level / slope the area, compact the soil, lay landscape fabric, add sand then the pavers.
Naomie's got it. The correct way of doing it. And it will last.
If the pavers are for a patio or driveway, I have seen masons put an inch or so of cement for a stable base that won't wash out.
Oh good luck- let us know how it goes!
