Join us for the Soil Knowledge Exchange Workshop on 1 December 2025 (13:30 – 17:00, online).
This event will bring together soil scientists, policy makers and practitioners to explore critical issues such as soil health, the impact of climate change and conflict on soils, carbon dynamics in different landscapes (e.g. saltmarsh, grassland). This workshop will offer a valuable opportunity to exchange ideas, share evidence and network, and may form the basis of a future soils community of research.
Share that you are ‘attending’ on LinkedIn to help us promote the event within your network.
