Scientists from Eurasian region met in Moscow Conference (November 20th, 2013) and, with the support of the FAO GSP Secretariat, analyzed the state of soil degradation and soil management in Eurasian region. On the first Plenary Meeting of the Eurasian Soil Partnership in Samarkand (10-11 September, 2014) they used the endorsed Plans of Actions (PoAs) of the FA O Five Pillars and formulated the Regional Implementation Plan of the Eurasian Soil Partnership (EASP) showing strong will to protect the soil resources in the region and globally. The report contains the Regional Implementation Plan (RIP) developed in close cooperation with the Eurasian Five Working Groups formed during the conference and the focal points of GSP from the Eurasian countries. It includes participatory regional implementation plan defining outcomes, activities, actors, period and potential donors, partners and implementation risks.

    Asian Soil Partnership Workshop on Digital Soil Organic Carbon Mapping: Towards the development of national soil organic carbon stock maps Asia Hotel, Bangkok, Thailand, 24-29 April 2017 Final workshop and financial report 2017
    Also available in:
    The 25th Committee of Agriculture - COAG (FAO, Rome, 26-30 September 2016) and the 155th FAO Council (5-9 December 2016), assigned to the Global Soil Partnership (GSP) of FAO the task to establish the Global Soil Information System and prepare the Global Soil Organic Carbon Map (GSOC) by 2017. The GSOC map will be developed using a distributed approach which will strongly rely on country inputs to build a global map from national soil organic carbon (SOC) maps. To this end, countries were invite d to develop national SOC maps according to predetermined specifications developed by FAO. This would also allow countries to develop nationally important products in order to report on SDG 15.3.1 on land degradation and support the endorsed metrics for the assessment of land degradation neutrality (LDN).
