The  European Mission Soil Week is an annual event promoting the Horizon Europe Mission 'A Soil Deal for Europe' (Mission Soil) raising awareness about the importance of soil health, and driving action to protect and restore our soils.

This edition of Mission Soil Week adds momentum to the ongoing efforts to improve soil health and provides the place to present and discuss how research and innovation (R&I) on soil health, and the Mission Soil in particular, contributes to:

  • Generate new knowledge
  • Harmonize soil monitoring
  • Co-design innovations and test solutions on the ground
  • Increase societal awareness and engagement
  • Support the green transition in more general terms

The event will allow participants to discover the first Mission Soil living labs and strengthen network collaboration. It will provide the opportunity to see inspiring examples of sustainable soil management by offering field visits to agricultural, forestry, urban and remediation sites.

STARGATE - Sustainable Aviation

The Stargate project obtained funding under the special Green Deal call of Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic of “green ports and airports”.  It received the maximum score of the evaluators and was selected out of more than 40 projects. Stargate’s purpose is to prove that sustainable aviation is possible and happening. It focuses on the further decarbonization of the aviation industry, the improvement of local environmental quality and the stimulation of the modal split. Together with a consortium of 21 European partners with a diverse and rich expertise (airports, community partners, knowledge institutions, consultants, local governments, …), Brussels Airports takes the lead as lighthouse airport to develop and implement innovative solutions. Results that prove successful can be deployed at the fellow airports (Toulouse, Budapest, Athens). Over the course of the coming five years, the consortium will exchange knowledge to investigate and realize more than 30 concrete projects.
