The World Living Soils Forum Concludes its Second Edition with a Call for Collective Action to Protect Living Soils

Key figures from this edition:

"Living soils are at the heart of our agricultural and winegrowing activities and our sustainable development strategy," said Philippe Schaus, CEO of Moët Hennessy. "We don't have all the solutions, but we want to act as a catalyst for stakeholders to move towards a common goal of soil preservation and regeneration. Our mission is to bring together as many people as possible, address soil-related issues, and accelerate the movement of an ecosystem of committed stakeholders. Together, we must continue to act and scale up."

A call to action to place soil regeneration at the heart of economic, educational, and political strategies.

During this second edition, a call for collective action was launched, with the aim of mobilizing even more widely around the need to preserve and regenerate soils. As supporters of life, guarantors of our health and the development of biodiversity, and at the source of our ways of consuming, feeding ourselves, and clothing ourselves, it is essential to protect this ecosystem on which we all depend, for our sustainability and that of future generations. This text, conceived and written with the support of the WLSF's external Advisory Board, recalls the challenges of soil health and details possible courses of action and commitment for all stakeholders. Farmers and field actors, businesses and economic actors, scientists, institutions, education and training stakeholders, media, NGOs, and citizens are invited to sign the call and work together on these issues.

Among the key takeaways from this 2024 edition:    
The systemic dimension of the challenges highlights the need to address the issue of living soils in all its complexity, integrating economic, environmental, social, and cultural dimensions. By bringing together all stakeholders, the WLSF accelerates the sharing of best practices, strengthens connections between different actors, promotes innovative solutions, and fosters a new narrative around the importance of soils for the future of humanity.
