Key messages:
- Soil is a diamond we need to polish carefully for the generations to come
- Soil health is important for mitigation, adaptation and food security
- 4p1000, backed up by solid scientific findings, is one of the major instruments for the implementation of Paris Agreement
- In order to reverse the severe soil degaration globally, we need to improve our soil policy with the goal of paying farmers for taking care of soils
- The concept of twin regions, and in particular an implementation of it between Africa and Europe, raises major interest as an instrument to achieve climate justice and international solidarity through the large-scale transformation to soil regeneration, agroecology and sustainable land management practices
- Living labs as a research approach with NGOs as key partners can bring the research and the farmers community closer together enabling realistic development of local solutions to ensure soil health and carbon sequestration
- Soil has already been heavily degraded, a lot of damage has been done. Soil policies need to be improved with the goal of paying farmers for taking care of soils, indicators need to be specified, actions are clear
Twin Regions Project Natacha one of the key
