Land & Water

Extension of deadline until 30 June 2025! FAO calls for impactful solutions on Land, Soil & Water for 80th anniversary recognition!


As FAO marks its 80th anniversary this year, we are launching a global call for submissions to showcase and recognize impactful solutions in land, soil, and water resource management.

FAO invites its Members to submit proven, innovative, and scalable solutions that have strengthened food security and promoted resilient agriculture over the years. Submissions should fall into one of these four categories: Land, Soil, Water, or Integrated Land-Soil-Water Solutions. Each Member can submit one solution under each category, for a maximum of four solutions.

This technical recognition award is part of a year-long celebration of FAO’s 80 years of technical leadership and guidance in sustainable natural resource management.

Selected contributions will be recognized at major global events, including the 13th Plenary Assembly of the Global Soil Partnership in June and the Rome Water Dialogue in October.

Submissions must demonstrate measurable impact, clarity and originality, replicability, sustainability, and relevance and applicability of the solutions to the management of land, soil and water resources. They are open only to FAO Members (i.e. governments), not to individuals, and should be submitted by 30 June 2025 (for all categories) by email to [email protected], using the dedicated form available here >>>
