Soil Steward Training Course

The key objective of this training course is to provide knowledge and tools mainly to civil servants—working at regional and/or municipal levels—and enable them to become a Soil Steward. A person that carefully, responsibly, and voluntarily contributes to spreading her/his knowledge and experience regarding soil health. Simultaneously, they serve as an advocate for raising awareness about soil health and care within the local or regional community.
