SoiLEX is a global database that aims to facilitate access to information on existing legal instruments on soil protection and prevention of soil degradation. The platform was created in coordination with FAOLEX, which is to date one of the largest databases of legal frameworks and instruments related to natural resource management, food and agriculture.

The FAO's Global Soil Partnership is pleased to invite you to the Webinar on Soil governance that will take place on Wednesday 13 January 2021 from 15:00 to 16:30 CET online (Zoom platform).
The Webinar will coincide with the launch of SoiLEX, a global database on national legislation on soil that aims to facilitate access to existing legal instruments and to bridge the gap between soil stakeholders.
