We are delighted to invite you to the first edition of the Latin American and Caribbean Soil Carbon Research Symposium (LAC Soil Carbon)! 

Over four days, whether you are a researcher, student, or soil and environment expert, come to exchange ideas and discuss the regional and global challenges linked to promoting sustainable agricultural practices and preserving soil health 🌻🚜

Co-organised by the Soil Carbon International Research Consortium (IRC) and the international “4 per 1000” Initiative, the Symposium is a unique opportunity to gain knowldege on organic carbon in soil, an essential resource for agricultural production.

The Symposium will address a series of scientific topics:

  • Soil and agricultural management systems promoting carbon sequestration
  • Soil carbon MMRV (Measuring, Monitoring, Reporting & Verification)
  • Carbon markets and certification
  • Public policies supporting climate change mitigation, adaptation in agriculture, and soil carbon sequestration

Additionally, presentations and roundtables will give you in-depth insight into sustainable agricultural production for socio-economic development and its importance for regional and global food security.

And finally, don’t miss the field visit to livestock-forestry integration in the Atlantic forest biome! 🌴
