The 2024 CA4SH Webinar Series
The Coalition of Action 4 Soil Health (CA4SH) is a multistakeholder partnership committed to scaling soil health, globally. CA4SH ’s membership base comprises stakeholders from member states, the private sector, research institutions, civil society, farmer organisations, multilateral organisations, and NGOs. CA4SH is now leveraging the wealth of knowledge and experiences from partners to address key challenges currently constraining farmers to implement healthy soil practices. Through the virtual Webinar Series, we will explore soil-related themes and share experiences with a focus on tailoring and scaling successful methodologies. The 2024 Webinar Series will be held over three sessions under the topics of bringing soil health into policy, science & knowledge for improving and monitoring soil health, and financing healthy soil practices.
Background and objectives of the Technology event
Scaling soil health requires on-the-ground intervention into its physical, chemical and biological components. There are endless technologies available with which to do this, ranging from high-intensity to low-impact, and everywhere in between. Further, indigenous peoples have always been stewards of soil health and invaluable sources of knowledge of their local contexts. CA4SH comprises indigenous organisations, as well as several private sector soil technology organisations, research institutions and other stakeholders who are continually working towards enhancing soil health through a variety of interventions catered to different contexts and scales.
The second session of the CA4SH 2024 Webinar Series is dedicated to science & knowledge for scaling soil health and the stakeholders who are behind it. The objectives of the session are:
Underscore traditional knowledge and practices that are led by and owned by indigenous peoples,
Present emerging soil health practices and their application on the ground,
Present soil health monitoring technologies and methodologies, and
Connect audiences with indigenous organisations, and research and development organisations that are developing new technologies
Details
This event targets a broad audience including stakeholders interested in traditional practices, technologies and methodologies for scaling soil health, including indigenous organisations, research institutions, private sector companies and actors on the ground. The 1.5 hr/session webinar series is open and free to attend to be inclusive to as many interested soil health advocates as possible.
Each session will comprise presentations from experts from various scales and sectors across the CA4SH membership, as well as a panel discussion and Q&A with speakers.
