Soil Mission Call 2024 Update      

June is an exciting month for the Soil mission with plans in progress for a National Engagement Event in Ireland which aims to raise awareness and promote the Soil Health LLs Call Topics for 2024 to Irish stakeholders. The event will be hosted as part of the NATI00NS project, a European initiative aimed at promoting soil health and sustainable land management practices through targeted funding opportunities under the Horizon Europe Mission “A Soil Deal for Europe”.

This National Engagement Event will serve as an excellent opportunity to delve deeper into the call topics and will allow for stimulating discussions with like-minded professionals, with the aim of fostering potential collaborations. These events provide a platform for interactive discussions and knowledge sharing. The objectives of the Soil mission and forthcoming funding opportunities will be presented with a showcase of practical examples and success stories.

We highly encourage you to get involved in events like these and to take advantage of the valuable insights and networking opportunities on offer - you'll find more in the calender here.
