The theme for World Soil Day 2025, “Healthy soils for healthy cities” highlights the importance of urban and peri-urban soils and the challenges caused by soil sealing and rapid urbanization. Celebrated annually on 5 December, this global observance raises awareness of the essential role soil health plays in sustaining life and building resilient communities. This year’s event will feature distinguished speakers and include the announcement of the Glinka World Soil Prize, the King Bhumibol World Soil Day Award and winners of the FAO soil contests.
