On 8 May 2026 at #EGU26, scientists, #policymakers, and #EU representatives gathered to discuss the EU #Soil Monitoring and Resilience Law and the role of soil science in supporting evidence-based EU policies.
During the session: ''Facing the last policy challenges in the EU: How soil scientists can contribute to the demands for scientific evidence to support EU policies.'' Kaisa Säkkinen shared key highlights in our last #GeoLog post.
