What is the conference about?

The Conference “National Challenge: Soil Degradation or Restoration?” is dedicated to the problem of soil degradation and the ways of its restoration in Ukraine. The focus of the 2024 discussion will be on European integration, climate change, soil degradation and war, and how to adapt and restore the natural balance: new research and practical recommendations
We gather the representatives of state and business, leading scientists and educators to join forces and draw maximum public attention to this problem.
As of 2023, we have held four conferences. However, new challenges appear every year — the world is changing and we are changing with it. But our principles remain unchanged: popularization of the soil problem, synergy of the state, science, business, and education, as well as a strong patriotic and civil position.
We gather to find the answer to the main question: what to do next?
