World Soil Day at UNFCCC (COP28)

World Soil Day was celebrated December 5 and highlighted the unsung hero beneath our feet—soil. This day served as a reminder of the importance of sustainable soil management to ensure food security, biodiversity conservation, and climate change mitigation. In light of this, and against the backdrop of UNFCCC COP28, the Coalition of Action 4 Soil Health (CA4SH) hosted a special dinner on December 5 in Dubai. The event put a spotlight on the indispensable role that soils play in carbon sequestration and climate management. With the global demand for land escalating due to climate change and a burgeoning population, the dinner emphasized the urgent need to overhaul existing land management practices.

Bringing together leaders from the private sector, UN organizations, farmers, NGOs, and civil society, the dinner served as a dynamic forum to explore innovative solutions for integrated soil, plant, and land fertility management. This dinner was not just a feast for the senses but a call to action, and a celebration of the inclusion of soil health in the Emirati Declaration – a significant achievement to have 152 countries recognize soil health.
