Call for Abstract | Wageningen Soil Conference 2015 | Deadline March 23rd 2015

Mankind is facing unprecedented environmental changes in the 21st century. We are just beginning to grasp the magnitude of our impact on the global environment and the related risks for our societies. We have a choice to make changes to the impact we have and thereby partly control the environmental changes and its societal consequences.

In 2015, declared by the United Nations as the International Year of the Soil, Wageningen University would like to invite you to the second edition of the Wageningen Soil Conference. Both the success of the first WSC, with its thematic programming, and the recognition of the importance of the soil by the UN shows that there is a growing acknowledgement for the important role of soils in solving the problems of our time.

The second edition of the Wageningen Soil Conference is scheduled to take place on August 23 - 27, 2015 on the Wageningen Campus in the Orion Building. See for more detailed information the Second Circular, to download below.
