Description

The factsheet "Soil-Related Ecosystem Services" is part of a comprehensive set of eight factsheets developed under the SOILL project to inform and support applicants involved in the EU Mission ‘A Soil Deal for Europe’.
It demonstrates how Living Labs can promote soil-related ecosystem services by co-developing sustainable land management practices, improving soil literacy, and integrating these services into planning and policy.

These factsheets build on the groundwork laid by the NATI00NS project and provide clear, accessible guidance to help navigate the application process for Soil Health Living Labs and Lighthouses.

This factsheet is part of a series of five thematic factsheets covering key Land Use Types, Agricultural, Forestry, Industrial, (Semi-)Natural, and Urban, along with two cross-cutting factsheets on Biogeographical Regions and Funding Opportunities. Together, these resources provide a practical overview of the Mission’s objectives, implementation strategies, and eligibility criteria.
