Description

Join your Northern European colleagues in Helsinki, Finland, in June 2023 to discuss soil carbon sequestration, gain new perspectives, become inspired, and build co-operation to scale up regenerative agriculture! The 1st ever Northern Europe "4 per 1000" Regional Meeting, co-organised by the Baltic Sea Action Group (BSAG) and the "4 per 1000" Initiative, is open to researchers, farmers, NGOs, company representatives, and policymakers. The purpose of the three-day meeting is to spark co-operation and knowledge exchange that enables us to achieve our shared objective of increasing soil carbon sequestration in order to mitigate climate change and biodiversity loss, safeguard food production, and protect waters.

Preliminary programme 6 June 2023, 2 pm – High-level talks Panel discussion: Climate change and biodiversity, issues specific to Northern European agriculture Farmer stories Poster session Dinner 7 June 2023, 9 am – 5 pm Plenary opening Parallel sessions: - Healthy soils for climate, biodiversity, and water protection - Soil carbon monitoring, reporting, verification – scientific basis for public and private incentives - Special case for Northern Europe: Peatlands Panel discussion: How can we achieve the objectives of the "4 per 1000" initiative? 8 June 2023 Field site visits: - Qvidja experimental Carbon Action farm - TWINWIN biodiversity research site - Intensive long-term agricultural measurement site SMEAR-Agri (Station for Measuring Earth surface-Atmosphere Relations)
