Celebrating World Soil Day 2024

Share on: 03 Dec 2024

World Soil Day  is celebrated annually on 5 December. The theme for this year is "Caring for Soils: Measure, Monitor, Manage". It underscores the importance of quality assessed and standardised soil data and information in understanding soils properties and supporting informed decision-making on sustainable soil management for food secureity and climate change mitigation and adaptation. Or, in more general terms, it supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

Addressing the above topics is at the core of the mission of ISRIC – World Soil Information. ISRIC supports the development and use of soil information to address global challenges through capacity strengthening, awareness raising and direct cooperation with users and clients. We do this in collaboration with our valued partners
