Co-creating solutions for soil health in Living Labs
This Horizon Europe funding program, 'Co-creating solutions for soil health in Living Labs', aims to bridge the gap between scientific knowledge and practical implementation in soil management. It supports the establishment of user-centered, place-based Living Labs across Europe to foster co-creation and testing of innovative solutions for soil health. The initiative is a key part of the 'A Soil Deal for Europe' Mission, working towards achieving healthy soils by 2030 and contributing to the broader European Green Deal objectives.
