The consortium meeting in Novi Sad sparked two days of inspiring collaboration and provided invaluable insights into the future of soil missions, soil health, and living labs. Day 1 revolved around discussing what worked and what we could do better from Year 1 of Nati00ns. The goal was to plan engaging events for Year 2, all supporting the EU soil mission and different land use targets.

Day 2 was about turning those ideas into action. We focused on making plans to support soil health and help those interested in LivingLab initiatives for 2024. Novi Sad was more than just a meeting place—it was where fresh ideas took shape, plans were made, and the commitment to a healthier planet strengthened.

Our time in Novi Sad was a big step towards a greener future. Together, we’re determined to positively impact soil health and sustainable land practices worldwide. The spirit of Novi Sad lives on in our collective dedication to a healthier planet for all.
