ESA Symposium on Earth observation for soil protection and restoration is a broad call to the international and EU soil community working in the soil science-policy framework to achieve climate neutrality, a clean and circular economy, revert biodiversity loss, safeguard human health, halt desertification, and revert land degradation.

The registration for participation will be opened in September 2023.  The Symposium sessions will include oral presentations (on invitation), discussion rounds and a poster display.
