Presentations - National Engagement Event on the EU Soil Mission - Czech Republic

The NATI00NS national engagement events raise awareness of the EU Mission “A Soil Deal for Europe” among national and regional stakeholders, providing access to quality-checked materials and information, spurring the discussions on the best Living Lab (LL) setups to address regional soil needs, and fostering early matchmaking for cross-regional LL clusters. Ultimately preparing regional and national stakeholders to apply for the EC calls for soil health Living Labs. We will explore the value of soils and understand the importance of land management patterns across all sectors and scales (local, regional, national, etc.) to enable soil restoration while contributing to net-zero emissions, resource-efficient, smart and circular production and consumption systems. Sessions are designed to involve participants across sectors and illustrate the benefits of engaging in the Mission activities. 

Our experts will instruct on the concept and criteria for soil health Living Labs and Lighthouses, as expected in the mission implementation plan. Participants will then be more confident to proceed with post-event work: generation of regional LL seeds, establishing cross-regional and cross-national networking, and taking part in capacity-building opportunities, towards solid applications to the Mission Soil calls. Interested participants can also register on the dedicated matchmaking online platform, where they will then be able to connect with potential partners across countries to establish Living Labs and consortia.
