We invite you to a launch event to meet stakeholders and learn more about the framework for soil protection in the EU. You will also hear more about the EU’s Soil Strategy and oncoming Soil Mission Living Lab call, and opportunities it will provide. Participation is possible in person in Helsinki or online. Participation by invitation only.
The event is organised at the premises of Finnish Innovation Fund Sitra and hosted by Finland’s Soil Mission Advisory Board members Dr. Anna Krzywoszynska (University of Oulu) and Dr. Liisa Pietola (Sitra). Their main task is to share information on the activities and funding streams of the Soil Mission, and to encourage you to support the Mission objectives.
By the end of November, the Soil Mission will publish a large funding call for Soil Living Labs. This call is an excellent opportunity to accelerate research and societal change on soil health in Finland and the wider Nordic region.
This event aims to support the Finnish research community to participate in the call, and also share information about the upcoming opportunities the Soil Mission will offer to all stakeholders working with agricultural, forestry and urban soils.
The recording of the event is in Youtube (part one and part two).
